Altarpiece from the middle of the 17th century It is iconographically remarkable, as Mary appears twice in a synchronistic way: in the middle as the main character with the Jesus boy, and on the left as a child in the Self-Party group. On the right outside St. Rochus with the angel.Bells with inscriptions, 1743.
