The Margaret Chapel was built by the residents in 1804, when the area on the left bank of the Rhine belonged to France. In 1852 it was benedicted, some time later it was no longer sufficient for the service. On March 27, 1881, the Chapel Building Society St. Margareta was founded. At the beginning of the 20th century, an emergency church was set up in a converted factory building, which was benedicted in 1917. In 1939/40 a church could be built. The plans of Karl Schmitz, Aachen. It was consecrated on June 14, 1942. In 1962 the baroque altar from Liedberg was returned there. The chancel was redesigned and the church restored according to plans by Werner Geyer. The new altar was consecrated on July 6, 1967.
