In 1862 Pastor Krätzig visited Strasburg, where he found a Catholic family of six and a Catholic wife. Over the years the number of Catholics increased, especially after the war of 1870/71. As the rural population emigrated to the industrial areas, more and more foreign workers came to the goods. Especially from the predominantly Catholic eastern provinces.

1882 First Catholic service after the Reformation in Strasburg. For this purpose, a room was rented from a Walnitz merchant in Falkenbergerstrasse. After a year they moved to a master plumber Behm, also on Falkenbergerstrasse. Thus every 6-8 weeks there was a catholic service in Strasburg.

1910 May 17th (3rd day of Pentecost) the solemn consecration of the new house of God takes place. Executed by the prince-bishop's delegate in Berlin, Prelate Kleineidam. Following the consecration ceremony, Holy Confirmation was given for the first time after the Reformation in Strasburg.

1945 The Red Army marched in on April 28th. The war was over, but not the period of suffering. The church was damaged by shells and the tabernacle was open.
