    The church was built in 1836 as neo-gothic. The temple was built of brick, on a rectangular plan, oriented. On the west side, a two-story tower on a square plan was built.
    Inside, in the presbytery windows, three stained glass windows from the late 19th century, founded by Karl von Flemming, attract attention. On the right side of the presbytery there is a neo-gothic pulpit with stairs. Above the entrance to the temple there is a choir gallery with an organ prospect, which was changed in earlier years into an altar superstructure.
