Abandoned? Really? Or do you mean it is not a church anymore but it is not abandoned? Such a pretty building.

There are so many old churches here - most of them are kept after by the church - so they seldom become ruins .
Usually there are no problems getting access to them (though you've to call someone in charge to open the doors).

It has a very nice pictorial quality to it, almost like an illustration from a medieval book. I'd be tempted to crop the right just a bit to get rid of that dark spot (house?) right on the edge.

Beautiful church, a real shame that it's no longer in use. Has the community shrunk, perhaps as young people move away to find work in bigger towns, and so made it difficult to keep it going?

Nice building. At least, hopefully, it is being well cared for.
