Inside
Inside there is a pendent dome under the tower area , the nave with a flat and painted wooden ceiling in the transept is barrel-vaulted. The Art Nouveau - Prospekt the organ dates back from the brothers link from Giengen. The paintings were carried out by Valentin Volk from Mainz and were restored in 1969. The signs of the zodiac and the tendrils on the crossing arches in the tower area should be emphasized, in the dome Christ at the Last Supper as well as images of Abraham, David, Moses and a prophet. The original stained glass windows in the apse from the company H.

Arched windows are made in the transept; they show the evangelists faced with reformers.
