The large hall church was built in 1736–39 with the inclusion of a partly medieval tower in the east. The church tower is covered with a hood on which sits a lantern , which is crowned with a weather vane labeled 1739. In it hangs a bell that was cast in 1522. The tower has bulky buttress walls . The long walls of the nave with five axes are divided by pilaster strips , with arched windows in between. In the middle are the portals with suspensions . Below the eaves there is a cranked cornice . All elements of the structure are made of ashlar . The nave is covered with a hipped roof on the outside and a partially vaulted wooden beam ceiling on the inside . The interior has three-sided, two-story galleries . In the east there are two-story boxes . The church furnishings are from the time it was built. In front of the east wall of the nave is a multi-colored marbled pulpit altar decorated in small pieces with a crucifix , angels and putti . It is marked 1744. A lectern sits on the carved baroque baptismal font . The organ with 24 registers , divided into 2 manuals and pedal , was built around 1820 by an unknown organ builder .
