The church bears the patronage of St. Pauli Conversion . It was built from local slate in Trier Street from 1963 to 1965 according to plans by the Trier architect Heinrich Otto Vogel .

The church tower is a cultural monument and contains the church bells as well as the memorial hall for the fallen. A baroque Mother of God and a Way of the Cross around 1900 are also listed as cultural monuments as church furnishings in the new church . A nativity scene is installed during the Christmas season .
