The choir, the same width to the nave, flat head and pointed windows is the thirteenth century.
She was surrounded by an outer gallery on two sides, south and west, which served as a porch at the main entrance and gathering place for the "community of people" before the Revolution.
It was destroyed in 1903 by the priest Budan with the approval of the municipality at the time, in order to use the materials for the reconstruction and restoration of the sacristy of the choir.
