History and architecture

The church of St. Jakobus major was first mentioned as a parish in 1193. It was a mother parish , from which the parishes in Enniger , Hoetmar and Neubeckum were parish . The building is a late Romanesque , two-bay hall church with a square west tower, it dates from the 13th century . The transept and choir were built in a neo-Gothic style from 1886 to 1887 . Pointed cross vaults rest on round dividing arches in the central nave . The side aisles are equipped with barrel vaults . The originally arched windows were enlarged at a later date. The formerly multi-stepped north portal was built into the west wall of the tower. Until the end of the 17th century there was a cemetery around the church, after which the edge of the cemetery was allowed to be built on, so a ring of houses was created around the church. In the 1970s, the interior was partially restored to its original state.
