The late Gothic church consists of a two-bay nave and a one-bay choir with a three-eighths end. The wooden turret is crowned by a hexagonal helmet. The two-part lancet windows on the south side still have the original tracery. A large, renovated pillared porch protects the pointed-arch, profiled west portal.
In the nave, a star-ribbed vault rests on polygonal wall pillars. A slightly recessed, pointed-arched and chamfered triumphal arch connects the nave with the choir. In the choir, a ribbed star vault rises on consoles.
The high altar with a two-storey columned aedicule, created in the late 17th century, bears a statue of Saint Rupert from the last third of the 15th century. The two side altars were created at the beginning of the 18th century. The central figure of the left altar represents the Evangelist Luke. On the right side altar there is a folk carving of Job and his wife; the upper image shows the Holy Trinity.
