    The present parish church of St. Agatha Wehlen was built from local quarry stone in the neo-Gothic style.

    The church, whose foundation stone was laid in 1862, is verifiably at least the third church building in the village.

    The construction of the church, which is dedicated to the first patron saint, Saint Agatha, but also to Saint Sebastian, lasted from 1862 to 1866. Master builder Statz from Cologne was responsible for the planning and overall supervision. The local church architect Kern was responsible for the execution. The construction costs at the time amounted to 40,000 thalers.

    The parish church of St. Agatha, located in the center of the village, was consecrated and moved into in 1867 after a construction period of 4 years. The construction of this church became necessary because the number of residents and believers grew rapidly in the course of the 19th century. Vincenz Statz from Cologne built the six-bay, vaulted hall from rubble stones and chose the neo-Gothic form. The tower hall is decorated with a relief of Saint Agatha from 1605.
