The church is located in the western part of the Stapelholm landscape. It has around 2,400 church members in the villages of Stapel, Seeth and Drage. The parish hall, which is in the immediate vicinity of the church, offers space for events for all generations.

The place of worship is St. Catherine's Church on the Eider, which was built around 1200. It is a single-nave stone church with a choir and apse. The mighty round tower (one of three in the Schleswig region) is striking.
