    1301 first mentioned by pastor Bertram. A short time later a church and the parish are mentioned. However, it can be assumed that there was already a church in Kaltenkirchen. When this church was built is as unclear as the origin and meaning of the name Kaltenkirchen.

      The first documentary mention dates from 1301. A short time later a church and the parish were mentioned. It can be assumed, however, that there was already a church in Kaltenkirchen before that. However, when this early church was built is unknown.

      In 1624, six years after the outbreak of the Thirty Years' War, a new church was built. It was a long and narrow choirless rectangular structure made of granite and bricks. The tower was probably left behind from an earlier church. Therefore, the age of the tower cannot be determined exactly, but it is probably a late Romanesque fieldstone tower from around 1200. As early as 1656 it was clad in red brick, which is reminiscent of the year on the outer wall. The eight-sided baroque hood with a pointed helmet, which was probably added in the same year, is also striking. After part of the east wall collapsed in 1873, the old church was demolished except for the tower in 1875. Construction of the new church began in 1878, and the inauguration took place on July 10th, 1879.
