The church was first mentioned in 1243. In 1803 the church was rebuilt in a larger style. The church has been used as a bicycle church since 2003 and is located directly on the Elbradweg.

There is also a memorial stone for the last pastor who died in 1967. In the 1970s the church was left to decay. Because of the efforts of many volunteers, it is now so beautiful to look at. The garden invites you to linger, there is a nice bench. The drinking water fountain should also be emphasized.
