In the middle of the village, the chapel rises on a small hill. It consists of a hall with a flat ceiling and a semicircular end. There are round arched windows, two on each side, in the nave and one on each side in the apse . On the outer facade in the apse of the apse there is a window. The projecting roof sits on sloping beam heads. The windows and the access door on the west side are framed. There is an archivolt over the door . Pilaster strips can be seen at the corners and at the base of the apse. A ribbon-like plinth runs around the chapel and a frieze on the eaves below the roof . On the staggered west gable, the roof turret protruding on three stepped consoles is erected. This has corner pilasters and rounded arched openings. It is covered with a transverse gable roof and, like the west gable itself, has a stepped gable.
