The church was built in 1079-1098. The temple has retained its original Romanesque form to this day. It has a defensive character. The church is a two-tower Saxon-type basilica, consisting of a short (single-arched) three-nave building, a transept and a presbytery closed by an apse. The presbytery is separated by a nave lecture hall. Stone walls consist largely of alternating layers of limestone and sandstone. The temple was set on fire several times, but this did not lead to significant changes in appearance (excluding the addition of baroque helmets of the tower and the portal on the north side).
