Worth seeing

The Protestant St. Dionysius Church was built in 1738–1747. It is a listed building. In 2009 the roof of the badly damaged church was re-covered and the tower restored. In September 2010, during restoration work on the wooden barrel ceiling, a painting from the time the church was built was uncovered. The interior of the church will continue to be restored on the basis of this find, including the altar and the organ. The ceiling and the upper of the two galleries shine in their old splendor. The church tower has a square plan with an octagonal slate-covered dome with a slate-clad lantern , which is crowned by a tower ball with a weather vane . The local church support association takes care of the restoration of the old beauty of the church.
