The church presents itself as a hall building. It corresponds to a late Gothic choir tower church, which was renovated in the Bayreuth margrave style. The chancel tower is east-facing and square. It has four floors, which are divided by cornices on the outside. The tower has a pointed-arched window on each side on the first floor. A slate pointed helmet completes the building at the top. It was installed in 1874 and has a turret and a simple golden cross as its apex.

The nave is also almost square and is divided from three to three axes. Each side has a central portal characterized by broken pediments and Tuscan columns. There is a large window to the left and right of it. Oval ox eyes can be seen above the portals. On the west side, the wooden passage from the castle meets the church building. Inside, the chancel occupies two tower floors. Cross vaults run through the choir, which merge into mirror vaults in the direction of the nave
