It is believed that the construction of the originally dedicated as Margaret's Chapel small church on the missionary activity of Saint Swidbert from England at the turn of the 8th to 9 Century goes back. The chapel served the scattered peasants of the rule Hardenberg as a place of worship. Documents about renovation work are available since 1682
