The slightly overhanging, massive, square west tower of the St. Wilhadi Church, together with the slender tower of St. Cosmae, has shaped the skyline of Stade for centuries and is popularly known as the "leaning tower of Stade".

Our church St. Wilhadi had a Romanesque predecessor from the 11th century, which was probably built as the first archbishop's church when Stade became the spiritual fief of the Bremen archbishops in 1063. The name also makes the reference to Bremen clear, because Saint Willehad was the first bishop and founder of the Bremen diocese. Remnants of the foundations of this first Wilhadi church were found in 1986 when a new heating system was being built.

The current three-aisled Gothic hall church dates from the 14th century. The oldest part of St. Wilhadi Church, however, is probably the west tower, which stylistically points to the late 13th century when it was built.
