The small church has a Romanesque choir and nave and a porch at the south side. The choir and nave are in granite ashlars, a Romanesque window is preserved in the gable, the other windows all small and romanized, seemingly they origin from a restoration in 1896. Both doors of the nave are preserved, the bricked-up north door was in 1896 placed on its original place and decorated with rope-windings. The south door, which edge profiles also have rope-windings, has on the frame stones relief images and in the thympanum field a double animal with wings and a human head. Inside are flat plaster lofts, the choir arch is preserved with profiled kragsten in various shapes and not placed in the same level.
