The walls of the nave are slightly higher than those in the chancel and narthex. The building is covered with roofs supported on rafters, and with varied ridge height. Over the chancel there is a five-pitched roof, and over the nave and narthex – two-pitched roofs, while the sacristy is covered with a mono-pitched roof. The roof of the nave is topped with a bell turret.
