An altarpiece allegory Redemption of Poor Souls by Franz Firler from 1757 is in safekeeping. The pulpit is from the second half of the 19th century. The ambo consists of parts from around 1800.

architecture The baroque church building with a simple nave under a gable roof has a retracted polygonal choir. The tower on the north side of the choir has round-arched sound windows with an eastern balcony with a bulging iron grille and, at the end, a blown gable with an onion helmet and lantern from 1821. The west facade with a composite gable has the figure of the Good Shepherd from the 19th century in a niche . The sacristy was added to the south. The interior of the church shows a four-bay nave with arched windows under a vaulted barrel with stitch caps on pilasters and flat belts. The two-story gallery on iron stands is from the 19th century. Behind the round-arched triumphal arch is the choir with a square groin-vaulted choir yoke and a 3/8 end. The ceiling paintings by the painter Josef Leopold Strickner from 1812 show St. Bartholomew before Christ and in the nave the torture, the sermon and the miraculous healing of St. Bartholomew.

In 1751 the church was re-consecrated after renovations. In 1811 the church was renovated and expanded to the west. The church was a branch of the parish church of St. Jakob am Arlberg and was elevated to a parish church in 1891. An interior renovation took place from 1973 to 1974.
