Description

Unfortunately, nothing is known about the form and appearance of any predecessor churches on this site. The origins of the present building date back to the 13th century, but the church has been rebuilt several times, particularly after the destruction it suffered during the Thirty Years´ War. A pentagonal chancel, with a rounded apse on the inside, adjoins the nave. The church is furnished with a pulpit dating from 1544.
