The church was built between 1848 and 1863. The architecture is influenced by the baroque style, a frequent phenomenon at ecclesiastical constructions built during the 19th century. The tower was restored, in 1905, but due to the technical problems it had to be demolished and then rebuilt. The old wall-paintings, in Byzantine style, were restored in 1927. The iconostasis comprises several registers of icons painted on wood, representing themes of the Byzantine canon: the Last Supper, Jesus Christ, Holy Virgin, the Prophets, the Apostles, St. Nicholas, the Annunciation, the Miraculous Fishing, the Expulsion of Adam from Eden, Jesus and the Samaritan Woman.
