The three-aisled, Romanesque pillar basilica with west tower was built in staggered quarry stone construction and was first mentioned in 1131. The central nave, illuminated by small arched windows, is open to the side aisles in three pillar arcades. The chancel in the east is covered by a groin vault. The tower casing dates from the 18th century.
A restoration took place for the first time in 1902. The last renovation was in 2006. The bells date from 1200 and 1535.
