This beautiful little church was built around 1681. If you're lucky, it's open and you can take a look inside.

The old church was built in 1681 after the Thirty Years' War. It replaced a smaller church which, like the whole village, was damaged during the war. The tower of the church was built around 1200 as a fortified tower made of quarry stone masonry. The tower has also been a bell tower since the end of the Middle Ages. In 1686 the church received a new wooden altar created by the artist Fabaring. The altar has a triptych as a top part. It shows the Easter story in three pictures:

Below the last supper with Jesus in the midst of his disciples,
in the center the crucifixion of Christ with Mary and John and the four evangelists and
above the risen Christ with arms open to the viewer.

The church received a gallery in the 18th century to create additional spaces in the church. In 1966 the church was completely renovated and rebuilt. The pulpit, which was previously part of the upper altar wall, was given a new place. The floor made of red sandstone slabs was replaced with Jura marble. The oak benches and other interior fittings have been replaced.
