At the end of the 19th century the church became too small and in 1895 a transept and a new choir were added according to plans by the Trier architect Eberhard Lamberty in a neo-Gothic style . At the end of 1944 the roof turret was destroyed by shell fire, and a temporary bell tower (wooden stand) was erected next to the church. In 1962 a free-standing bell tower was erected next to the church. However, today's church is not the first in Aach.
