The church was first mentioned in documents in 1196. Around 1340/50, the construction of the present church is completed. It is the fifth at this point. Around 1496 the choir room is cultivated. In the years 1955/56 the interior of the church was thoroughly renovated. In 1975/76, fittings from the 19th century are removed. Recently the restoration of the tower dome (1993) and finally the renewal of the exterior plaster (2010/11) have been carried out.
