Originally a Romanesque church with a single nave, rounded choir and bell tower on a dome. In the 15th century, two aisles were added, whose vaults, as well as those of the nave, were rib vaults. The left aisle was removed, but the columns and the springings of the ribs remain visible in the exterior facade of the left wall. The round-arch porch was decorated with Renaissance motifs. The choir was raised on the exterior. The dome was rebuilt.
