      The church is a valuable, late Gothic building with an imposing interior. Inside there are ribbed vaults, a painted cloudy sky, parapets with paintings and a Gothic triumphal cross. The church was consecrated in 1495.

        A church worth seeing above the old village center, accessible via a steep staircase. From the vestibule you can view the impressive interior behind glass.
