The central aisle of this church in late Gothic style dates from 1659.
The side aisles were not added until 1774.
And the tower is no longer the original. It burned down in 1694 and was rebuilt shortly afterwards.

Inside you can see a tomb and pulpit from the 18th century, as well as 17th century statues and a confessional. However, when I passed by, the church was closed. So photos of the interior will have to come from the next hiker.
