    The church was mentioned in a document in 1313 and raised to a parish church after 1445. The core of the medieval building has been preserved in the basement of the tower. The current church was built between 1715 and 1717 with the master builder Remigius Horner. The interior was restored in 1947 and 1967, and the facility was restored in 1970.

    The church with a pilaster outside structure has a four-bay nave, which is followed by a three-conch choir typical of Horner. The three-axis organ loft stands on pillars. Inside the church has pilasters placed three on top of one another, on which the belts of the groin vaults rest on shield arches above the windows. In the south of the fourth nave yoke stands the square tower with an octagonal bell storey from the construction period; he has a pointed helmet designed by Hans Pascher (1896). The baroque sacristy is on the north side of the choir. The stained glass windows in the choir with portrait medallions of the four evangelists were made in Innsbruck at the beginning of the 20th century.

    A remarkable epitaph on Friedrich von Teuffenbach, who died in 1621, is attached to the outside of the southern front.
