The church was awarded the title of "Parish Church" as early as in 1255. It can be assumed that the church was completed by 1274/75. Between 1309 and 1345 the church was altered to widen the side aisles and increase the height of the steeples in high gothic style. The late gothic hall chancel was built between 1358 and 1379. | See map |
