The parish in Döhren, which originally belonged to the Archidiakonat Sarstedt of the Diocese of Hildesheim , has been documented since the 14th century and is therefore one of the oldest parishes in Hanover. In 1320 the kercklen to Dornde was owned by Artur van Boltesem. The chapel congregations in Laatzen and Wülfel have been attached to the Petrikirche since the Middle Ages, the latter first mentioned in 1392 as belonging to Döhren. The Reformation was introduced in 1529 with the impeachment of the last Catholic priest Johannes Holthusen and the installation of Heinrich Palster.

In 1957 the Church of the Resurrection congregation was spun off.

Church building

The first Gothic church made of quarry stone was probably built in the middle of the 14th century. The lower part of the church tower has been preserved from him. The nave was expanded as a hall church in 1710 and redesigned in Baroque style . In 1782 there was a second renovation and in 1891/92 a fundamental neo-Gothic redesign with the addition of a transept. The tower helmet dates from 1913. After it was destroyed in the air raids on Hanover in World War II , the church was rebuilt in 1949 with the financial support of the American section of the Lutheran World Federation according to plans by Otto Bartning as an emergency church with modules made of standardized wooden trusses. There are historical grave monuments from the 16th to 18th centuries on the outer walls and in the chancel.
