History and architecture

The church was first mentioned in the 12th century and documented as a parish church in 1307. The previous church was a three-aisled pseudo - basilica from the end of the 15th century. It was extended by two bays to the west in 1892 and the tower was rebuilt. It was blown up in 1945 when the German troops withdrew and destroyed except for the surrounding walls and the choir. In 1949 it was rebuilt as a hall church .

The hexagonal central building with a tent roof was completed in 1972 according to plans by H. Balke and B. Kösters while maintaining the old building fabric. The eastern nave yoke, the choir with sacrament niche and the piscina , as well as the two-storey sacristy from the late 19th century have been preserved from the old church .
