The church building was built in the second half of the 13th century as a simple hall church. In the following centuries, the parish expanded and remodeled the church several times; it has been a listed building since the 1970s.

According to the information board: Construction of the town church began immediately after the town's founding in the mid-13th century. In the first decades, before the city walls had been built, the church likely served as a refuge for the Lychen population during attacks.
The early Gothic fieldstone building, dedicated to John the Baptist since 1302, was expanded and remodeled several times over the centuries. A major fire destroyed the original interior in 1684. During reconstruction, the church received a Baroque high altar and a gallery.
