Jedná se o rane barokní stavbu z roku 1703. Dnešní podobu získal kostel po požáru v roce 1793. Vež roztríštená bleskem byla v roce 1834 nahrazena empírovou prilbicí. V predsíni je uložen náhrobek z roku 1560 vynatý ze zdi u vstupní brány a ve veži se nachází jeden z nejstarších zvonu v okolí z roku 1530. Fara vedle kostela patrí k nejstarším na Morave. Prestavena byla po požáru v roce 1793. Vstupní portál nese letopocet 1654, obdobné stárí má i poblíž rostoucí mohutný dub. Ke kostelu vede unikátní kryté schodište.
