🕍 Built in 1693–94, presumably according to plans by the renowned architect Abraham II Dünz. Unfortunately, the construction was also financed with confiscated Anabaptist property from the region. In 1871, the hall church received a neo-Romanesque front tower with an octagonal spire and three bells, designed by the architect Jakob Merz. The tower stands out vividly from the masonry with its twin windows, round-arch friezes, and cornices. During the renovation in 1977, the Baroque interior was restored in the style of the sermon hall, with a simple wooden ceiling and grisaille painting by Christian Stucki, as well as the original baptismal font (Dünz).
