The Paulskirche stands on a hill that was built at the time using the most modern construction techniques.
It is a neo-Gothic church whose original furnishings such as stained glass on the window, the altar with paintings, the chancellery and the royal box have been preserved.

The church was built between 1863 (laying of the foundation stone) and 1869 (inauguration). It is a prototype of the church building concept of the Eisenacher Regulativs, which was created with the significant participation of the Schwerin Oberkirchenrat President Theodor Kliefoth and has now been implemented by the architect Theodor Krüger (1818–1885). The building, which lies high above the Pfaffenteich on a hill that has been extended for construction, was constructed using the most modern methods at the time. It has a steel roof structure and tracery made of weather-resistant clinker.
In contrast to many other neo-Gothic churches, the furnishings in the Paulskirche have been preserved. These include the glass paintings with depictions of the history of salvation, which presumably go back to a program by Kliefoth, the pulpit and the altar with paintings by Karl Gottfried Pfannschmidt and the royal box.
