The altarpiece is flanked on either side by a statue of St Florian and a statue of St Leo. The windows of the sanctuary depict St Stephen and St Imre. The pulpit is in Rococo style, with artistic carving. Near the bridge over the Danube of Moson stands the chapel of St John of Nepomuk, built-in 1895.
