The high altar was built around the middle of the 17th century. The central figure is the Mother of God with child in front of reliefs of the fourteen helpers. Above it is a group of figures depicting the Coronation of Mary. The side altars with altar paintings of St. Liborius (right) and St. Barbara (left) were made around 1680. In contrast to those of the high altar, its columns are twisted. There are also figures of Saints Clare and Catherine (around 1500) as well as Saint Sebastian and a crucifix from around 1750 in the church.
