A church in Mengsberg is mentioned for the first time in the Ziegenhainer Urbar from 1360/67. When this church was built and whether it was the first church in Mengsberg is not known, but a parish church and thus a parish in Mengsberg has been documented since 1475. The old church, built before the Reformation, burned down in the great fire on September 15, 1875. The foundation stone of the present church was laid in 1879 and it was consecrated in 1883.
