The single-nave church is built of quarry stone and dates from the 13th century. To the west of the nave is a steeple standing across the nave. It is covered with a gable roof and has acoustic arcades designed as pointed arches. Modifications were carried out in 1505 and in the 19th century. A small extension is added to the south side of the nave.

The interior of the church is covered by a 16th-century wooden ceiling. It is decorated with ornamental stencil painting. In addition, there is a two-sided gallery. The carved Gothic altar was made around 1430. A Madonna is depicted in its raised central part. She is flanked on each side by two female saints arranged one above the other. The only figure preserved in the wings of the altar is that of Jacobus Major.

In 1937 a restoration took place. The carved altar in the wings was carefully supplemented with texts. During the restoration there were also large-scale additions to the ceiling paintings.
