[1] The present church, replacing earlier structures, was built beginning in 1340.

In 1975/76, additions from the 19th century were removed, archeological excavations were performed, and ornamental decoration of the ceiling refreshed.

[3] A monument in front of the church was erected in memory of soldiers who fell in the wars between 1864 and 1871.

[6] Church and parish belong to the Kirchenkreis Halle [de] of the Evangelische Kirche von Westfalen.

The main feature is a carved stone altarpiece dated to 1501,[2][8] aimed at the majority of the congregation that could not read.
