History
This church of the 12th century with rectangular nave is extended by a stepped-back choir with a bell tower of the 13th century in ashlar stone with wide buttresses; the western part comprises a porch with a charity room. The nave was rebuilt in the 16th and 17th centuries (fitting out of woodwork of the choir stalls). The interior, panelled, houses remarkable furnishings, including a recumbent figure of an ecclesiastic of the 14th century.
