    The choir tower church was built from quarry stone and ashlar masonry and is plastered. The Gothic choir tower in the east and the sacristy on the north side are original. The nave was renovated in 1713. The choir tower has a square floor plan and a rectangular window on the south side. In the bell storey it has arched sound openings of different sizes on the south, east and north sides and a clock face on the north and south sides. It tops off with a pyramid roof. The nave has a gable roof, the ridge of which is at the height of the bell storey, and a bat dormer on the north side. It has an axis of rectangular windows on the north and south sides towards the choir tower, another small rectangular window on the south side, a pointed arch window above it, and on the north side there is a bull's eye and a rectangular portal. The cemetery with walls is located around the church.

    The hall has a single nave and a wooden gallery on the west and north sides. The gallery parapet features paintings of the Twelve Apostles with their identifying features. In the southeast corner of the hall there is a wooden pulpit, probably from the beginning of the 18th century, with a marbled polygonal basket. On the east side, the hall is connected to the choir by a round-arch arcade. In the groin-vaulted choir there is the altar with a crucifix as a top.
