History
The earliest existing historical records of the church date back to the year 1306, but it was not built that year. The first church was a wooden

In 1853–1855, the church was renovated to the layout of the present-day church. The church was sold to the parish in 1857. In 1911, the church was renovated again.[3][4][5][6]
