description

The hall church was built in the early 13th century. It has a choir tower in the east, to which an apse adjoins. Around 1710 the rectangular tower was given a slate-roofed upper storey for the bell chamber , on which a hood sits, crowned by a tower ball . The nave is covered with a gable roof. The interior of the nave , the width of the choir , has a flat roof and is opened to the apse by arches . In the northeast corner of the choir there is a sacrament house from the late 15th century. The organ with 11 registers , divided into 2 manuals and pedal , was built in 1877 by Adam Eifert .
