The current building dates from the third quarter of the 15th century; nothing is known about a previous building. Between 1699 and 1703 the interior was given a Baroque style, between 1912 and 1914 the church was renovated and in 1960 the church interior was restored.

In the field of tension between modernity and old age, you can rest/stop here and sit comfortably with coffee and cake. You can buy souvenirs not only related to honey, but also from the local brewery or chocolate factory.
