Parts of the church (choir and sacristy) were replaced by conglomerate and brick in the 15th century, until then it was a Romanesque wooden building. The nave was only rebuilt in the 17th century. After a thorough restoration between 1991 and 2008, the church is now a gem worth seeing in the beautiful landscape of the Almtal.
