[3] The church, built of brick on a fieldstone base, consists of a chancel, a nave and a porch.

Built on the top of an ancient burial mound, it consists of a heavy framework of oak on a fieldstone foundation.

[5] The church's former altarpiece, a triptych carved by Benedict Dreyer of Lübeck in the early 16th century, is now in the National Museum.

Its reliefs depict two birds, an eagle, a cock and a fanciful combination of a lion's body, a horse's head and a human face.

[3] In 1900, frescos depicting a Gethsemane scene were discovered in the chancel by Jacob Kornerup who restored them in 1910.
