History and architecture
The neo-Gothic hall church with three bays and a retracted choir with a 5/8 end was built from 1908 to 1909 under the direction of Wilhelm Sunder-Plaßmann . The tower faces west. The plastered structure is structured by stone-visible edges, buttresses and a base. The nave is equipped with three-lane, the choir with two-lane tracery windows. A ribbed vault was drawn into the interior and a star vault into the choir . There is a neo-Gothic altarpiece in the choir . Incidentally, the furnishings come from the time the church was built.
The well-known altarpiece was created by the sculptor Matthias Beule from Grevenbrück , who had a studio in the neighboring Olpe from 1906 to 1909 and at that time also created the portals of the St. Martinus Church in Olpe; Later Beule became known for his work on new church buildings in Upper Silesia .
