The chancel was added in 1860, and the church underwent restoration and alterations in the 19th century. Inside, there is a west gallery supported by Corinthian columns and a carved cornice. The 15th century font is decorated with four wild men and lions on the stem, along with the symbols of the evangelists on the bowl.
