Building description

The nave consists of four window axes and was extended in 1870 to include the Emporenjoch. It has arched windows and a flat ceiling. The former south entrance to the church is walled up and was located under the third window from the east. By a round chancel the retracted closed on three sides joins the nave chorus to. The choir, consisting of two bays, is probably late Gothic. Stepped buttresses with a pent roof are attached to the outside of the choir . In the choir there is a barrel vault with a neo-Gothic rib profile around the stitch caps. Two passages lead from the choir north to the church tower and south to the two-storey sacristy built in 1923 . The church tower in the northern choir corner consists of unplastered Nagelfluhquadern . The basement of the tower has a groin vault with arched niches. The arched sound openings on the floor of the tower clock are walled up. On the bell floor there are sound arcades with intermediate pillars made of sandstone , but the northern one has not been preserved. The church tower is covered with a gable roof . The prince abbot of the Kempten monastery , Honorius Roth von Schreckenstein , donated a new bell in 1772.
