There was originally a half-timbered church from the early 18th century on the site . This fell victim to a fire caused by a lightning strike in 1902.

The interior of the church is also shaped by Art Nouveau. Among other things, there is an altar here, which was once donated by the Burschenheim to the L. Bolle Mission in Berlin Alt-Moabit . The church organ dates from 1905. The instrument was created in the workshop of the Olbersdorf organ builder A. Schuster & Sohn (Opus 43).
