Inside the church on the right wall is a white marble plate with four figures by pediatric and Christ on the cross, with Czech inscription: "V r. 1597 before this altar dead flesh of your sons and daughters, Mr. Johann Blediny, an official Štepanice estate, in the silence of the coming of the Lord."
