There were three wooden altars in the church. 1793–1816 the building was renovated, the entrance hall, a presbytery with two sacristies were presented, and instead of a wooden collapsed tower - a brick one. 1912 a plan for the reconstruction of the church was approved, material was prepared, but the war hampered the work.
