Originally a Baroque octagonal cemetery chapel, built before the 1681. In 1681-82 rectangular nave was added and the original chapel became the presbytery of the church. Above the presbytery is a two-storey tower. In the interior is main altar from 1681, with a picture of St. Barbara from 1899 and the rococo side altar from the 18th century.
