The church has been listed as a historical monument since 5 May 1998. To the east, the church has a semicircular chevet with powerful buttresses and covered with slate. To the west is a rectangular bell-tower-porch, also covered with slate, whose western portal (called "Gate of the Dead") has a two-colour decoration consisting of triangles of black basalt and light sandstone. Between the two is a long, three-bay, tile-covered nave.
