The Pfarrkirche Mariä Himmelfahrt was mentioned for the first time in 1347. It was remodeled by Joseph Schmuzer, the architect of Wessobrunn, into a baroque church, which was destroyed during the great fire of 1865. From 1868 to 1871, Matthias Berger built the current three-aisled neo-Gothic church with a retracted choir and a western Spitzhelm tower. Only the main altarpiece painting by Bartolomeo Litterini could be saved and is now on the left side wall of the choir.
The current organ was manufactured in 1991 by organ builder Sandtner from Dillingen an der Donau.
