The style architecture of the 19th century, for a long time valued as inartistic, has now been extensively researched, evaluated and rehabilitated as an architectural and cultural-historical phenomenon. The church in Katzem is one of those simple country churches that have been neglected for a long time and were built by an important master builder. Heinrich Nagelschmidt (1822–1902) is one of the busiest private builders in Cologne of his time, whose extensive work has meanwhile been processed in a two-volume dissertation. She lists u. a. 24 new churches, as well as numerous extensions and restorations. In the u. a. The Katzem church and its building history are described in detail in books by Pappert and Dux.

From 1859, Nagelschmidt was commissioned to restore the Lambertus Church in Erkelenz. The designs for the small village churches and chapels in Katzem, Tenholt and Granterath were assigned to him as follow-up orders. While the latter two show major changes compared to the original design, the concept of the church in Katzem has remained essentially unchanged except for the attached tower and the sacristy egg extension. The simple neo-Gothic forms and the single-nave type are typical and unusual for smaller buildings of this type and only used by Nagelschmidt for the three small buildings in the Erkelenz room is the arrangement of the sacristy adjacent to the apex of the choir. Even if the Katzem sacristy has been expanded in the meantime, because of this unusual location it is of architectural historical importance and therefore part of the monument.

Because of the temporal proximity to the church building (1865), Dux, p. 742 assumes that the neighboring rectory was also designed by Nagelschmidt. The tower, which was in front of it more than thirty years later, continues the neo-Gothic posture of the main nave in its own design language. His architect, Professor Josef Buchkremer (1864–1949), was a. a. Lecturer at the RWTH and for many years concerned with the maintenance and care of Aachen Cathedral, from 1915 as master builder.

As a church in the village of Katzem, the Catholic Church of St. Mary's Conception is important for Erkelenz. For the reasons given, there is a public interest in their preservation and use as evidence of the church building of the 19th century, the work of important master builders and as a symbol of the independent parish development in Katzem for scientific, in particular architectural and local historical reasons. It is therefore a monument according to Section 2 (1) Monument Protection Act.
