The first chapel can be traced back to 1684. This church was rebuilt four times. Finally, after the battles in the Hürtgenwald, a new building was necessary after the Second World War, as the place, including the church, was razed to the ground. The current church was built in 1949 as a neo-Romanesque hall with a retracted choir and round apse. In 1966 the church tower made of rubble was added.
