history

The Protestant old church was built as a stately choir tower church without any year in the Middle Ages .

tower

The church tower consists of a heavily elevated, higher, longitudinally rectangular choir, the eastern part of which was raised again with a slate - covered half - timbered tower . Then the hood follows . On the side of the choir there are probably several walled-up windows from the 13th century.

Nave

The extended nave adjoins the choir. On the south side of the nave and choir there are also walled up arched windows. They probably date from the year 1779. In 1903, renovation work on the pulpit and inlaid work on the benches and galleries , on the ceiling paneling and on the organ house followed . The lamps, the current sacristy and the winter church were also designed during this time. The Rococo pulpit and the sound cover are from earlier (1762) . An old door leaf with decors and fittings as well as two bell fragments come from there.

organ

The church is equipped with an organ from 1903 from the Heerwagen workshop .
