    The original church was built between 1828 and 1832. It was destroyed in World War II and then rebuilt in a simplified form.

      The Unterbarmer main church is a Protestant church in Wuppertal-Barmen. The Unterbarmer Church is a monument of particular importance for two reasons: On the one hand, it is the first church building to be built by the architect Heinrich Hübsch, and on the other hand, it is one of the earliest known buildings of neo-Romanesque architecture.

      The church building was erected between 1828 and 1832 instead of a provisional predecessor. The manufacturer Friedrich Engels played an important role in this. The Baden architect Heinrich Hübsch had already received the order for the Barmer Church in 1825, for which he delivered the plans in 1826/27. The on-site construction was carried out by the architect Christian Heyden. Hübsch himself only saw the completed church long after it was completed.
