The Evangelical Church was first mentioned in 1231 and is consecrated to John the Baptist . The lower part of the tower dates from the 12th century. In the Romanesque period the arched windows with columns and loopholes were placed on this base. The late Gothic stepped gable followed in the 16th century . The old main nave had become dilapidated in the 17th century, so it was demolished and rebuilt by 1699. The furnishings of the church, such as the pulpit and organ loft, date from this period, as well as an epitaph from the domain administrator in Neuburg.
