An old church with an unusual style of construction. The Chapel of St. Mary was built in 1354, and the tower was added later, in 1514. The church was partly part of the city fortifications. The two transepts were added in the 18th century. From 1703 to 1847, the Latin school and the headmaster's living quarters were located there.

The church is a very unusual ensemble. On the one hand, its church tower was part of the city fortifications. Above all, however, the roof structures catch the eye. The school and the teacher's apartment were formerly located there. Three institutions under one roof.
