The entrance door frame is beautifully decorated with rope motifs, rosettes, crosses and fir horn motif. Inside the church narthex and nave are covered with paintings. The scenes are inspired from the Bible: Adam and Eve, The Last Supper, Washing the Feet, The Way of the Cross.

The iconostasis has three registers, in the upper stage of the Crucifixion, in the second Jesus surrounded by apostles who sit two by two under arcades. At the bottom of the iconostasis are the doors and the icons. Icons were made at a later stage.
