The chapel of St. Nicholas was originally built in 1345. The Gothic fortified church with cemetery fortifications was built around 1425 on the foundations of the demolished chapel. In 1632, during the Thirty Years' War, it was destroyed and rebuilt in 1740 as a typical margrave church by a foundation from Rieter von Kornburg.

The Evangelical Lutheran parish church of St. Nicholas dates from 1740 and is surrounded by a high church wall. It was apparently built by Johann David Steingrub in the Margrave Baroque style.
