Inside we can see the original 18th century Baroque interior design and furnishings. There are also a few epitaphs from the 1800s. Originally there was also a benevolent icon of the Holy Mother from 1490, but it was stolen in 1992. Its copy was placed here in 1995.
As old as the church, the chapel standing nearby is ornamented inside with wall paintings which depict miraculous events connected with the cult of the icon of the Holy Mother. The chapel was expanded in the mid-1800s.
