The extensive interior painting of the choir was completely restored, which was carried out during the tenure of Pastor Dr. Adolf Stakemeier (1950–1974) had been painted over, and the choir and chancel redesigned according to the liturgical understanding of the Second Vatican Council . Pastor Berthold Wagener (1978-2011) contributed significantly to this.
