ENG: Rectangular stone bell tower was probably built simultaneously with the adjacent St. Michael before 1580. It is a two-storey building in the shape of a rectangle. On the plaster can be seen the remains of renaissance sgraffito. In the belfry hangs a bell dedicated to St. Michael, made in 1598 by Elijah of Hradec nad Labem (now Hradec Kralove).

CZ: Zdená hranolová zvonice byla postavena pravdepodobne soucasne se sousedním kostelem sv. Michaela pred rokem 1580. Jedná se o patrovou stavbu na pudorysu obdélníku. Na omítce jsou viditelné pozustatky renesancních sgrafit. Ve zvonici visí zvon zasvecený sv. Michalu, odlitý v roce 1598 mistrem Eliášem z Hradce nad Labem (dnes Hradce Králové).
