A first predecessor building was probably made already at 700. On this foundations the present church was built in 1091. In 1450 to 1500 the main part of the nave and the choir were built in Gothic style. After the huge fire of 1784 the main gate and the tower have been built.
So the curch is more than 900 years old!
