Church
The church is
situated on a small hill not far from the square, facing the west. It is built
in a Renaissance style and has only one bay.
The first mention is dated back to 1369. The original wooden church had a wooden
belfry from 1586. In 1670 this church was demolished and there was built a new
church in 1675. On the place, where the old wooden belfry was situated, there
was constructed a new stone belfry
in 1685. In 1885 the church was rebuilt to today’s look. The small tower was
built in 1810.
The rectory comes from 1786, but there lives no priest here, he commutes from
Police n.Met.
In 1990 there was bought a new bell St. Wenceslas and the church got a new
facade.
In 2000 a new decorating and electroinstalation was remaked. (Photos)
