Plastered church from 1828 with a retracted neo-Gothic west wing made of yellow bricks. Inside there is a baptismal angel from 1709 that is worth seeing. Viewing possible by arrangement

The small, rectangular plastered building was built in 1828 and received a neo-Gothic west tower in 1869, and the west gable was also designed as a stepped gable. The nave is divided by pilaster strips. The windows and the south portal are round-arched.
The interior has a flat roof. The furnishings include high-quality carved figures: a floating baptismal angel, the risen Christ and a trumpet angel, all from the first half of the 18th century. There is also an octagonal baptismal font and, of course, the simple pulpit altar. Small stained glass ornaments are incorporated into the windows.
The cemetery is located on the western edge of the village (Dorfstr. 43), where there is a modern funeral hall, a small hereditary burial ground made of brick (possibly also the old mortuary), and there is also the grave of a soldier who fell in the last days of the war.
