The floor plan of the single-nave church is symmetrical, with a belfry over the main entrance. It is composed of solid volumes. The tower has been divided with simple cornices into a number of these solids. The inner hall is enclosed with an unusual vaulted ceiling with transverse fluting. A gallery runs alongside towards main elevated windows. The space below them is being illuminated through smaller windows. The floor is sloping down slightly towards the altar, which has a gradual contour. A smaller organ is located at the choir upstairs. Given the relatively small area of glazing, the interior is fairly dim. A sign at the entrance informs of the 1991 collection of exiled Slovaks which funded the roofing replacement.
