The church was built in 1860 (see the facade stone in the left side wall). Since then, the front facade has not been changed, but the windows in the side walls, which illuminate the service rooms, have. These were renewed in the 1930s, but the old situation can still be recognized. The two diagonally placed closing sides also have renewed windows that were probably installed in the 1930s. The interior will have been renovated in the same period. The current wooden vault shows the characteristics of that period (1930s character). What the original vault looked like can no longer be determined.
