The church of gray stone attracts attention with its unusual appearance. The architectural style is a flaming Gothic. The facade of the church resembles the flame of a burning candle, this is clearly traced in the special form of windows.

On the wooden doors of the three-nave church of gray stone carved biblical stories, inside stained glass windows of the XV century. Behind the church of St. Maklou is the cemetery of the same name, where in the Middle Ages the dead were buried from the plague. It is a columbarium with galleries decorated with figures of skulls and bones made of wood.
