Located on a hill, the defensive, Gothic church stands on the remains of an older brother from the 12th century. At the top of the front facade, on the west side, there is a stone shield with the coat of arms of Grzymała. The temple is surrounded by a defensive wall from the 16th century with towers and shooting ranges. From the same period comes the church belfry, which served as a gate tower. Fragments of the frieze decorated with plant and animal motifs have survived on its walls. The presbytery of the church is closed polygonally and covered with a rib vault. There is a barrel vault in the sacristy. During the reconstruction, a neo-Gothic porch was added to the church. The church's equipment comes from the beginning of the 20th century (the previous one was destroyed during a fire). On the main altar there is a picture of St. Idzi painted by Kazimierz Alchimowicz. A sundial is located in front of the church on the south side.
