Sažetak
The Baroque church was built on the site of an older building. Construction took a long 40 years, with the sanctuary completed in 1729 ; the nave in 1748 and building concluded in 1769. Due to the long construction period, the stucco decoration was created over a long period, but nonetheless is based on an extensive, uniform iconographic programme. Authorship of the wall paintings has not been thoroughly elucidated yet, partly because in the forms the personal styles of three painters can be observed, while the only signatures to be identified are those of Franciscus Weitenhiller of 1776, and Joann Joseph Görner (probably a Varaždin painter) of 1779. There are also some excellent woodcarvings. The High altar (1739) is attributed stylistically to the Zagreb sculptor, Joseph Weinacht. Weinacht was one of the most accomplished local sculptors of the first half of the 18th century whose style shows the influence of contemporary Styrian sculpture, which suggests that he trained there. The pulpit (around 1761) is ascribed to the Zagreb sculptor, Franjo or Franz Straub (1726–before 1771).
