The church was built in the 12th century and originally belonged to the Merten monastery. At the beginning of the 19th century it was rededicated as a parish church. Today you can admire the three-aisled building with the two towers as it has been since the 18th century. If you have the opportunity, take a quick look inside the church. The simple structure, the altars and the statues are worth seeing.
