Parish church of St Michael the Archangel
The three-nave, neo-Gothic hall church has room for 1500 people.

The slender, pointed tower (78 metres high) of the parish church, which was built between 1900 and 1902, can be seen from afar. The 10 older stained glass windows provide a wonderful light when the sun shines.

The "Cathedral on the Ager" - as the three-nave hall church is known - is characterised by its uniformity of style. From the architecture to the paving and the windows to the altars - the church is "thoroughly composed" in the neo-Gothic style.

The late Gothic statue of the Virgin Mary from around 1470 and the "Entombment" in the predella of the left side altar are valuable relics of the neo-Gothic church.
