    On October 3, 1717, the parish church in the center of Niederselters was inaugurated. In the years that followed, the population grew from 500 to around 1,500 in 1885. The fairs in today's "Alte Kirche" cultural center were constantly overcrowded, and the church was too small. At this point there were the first talks with Limburg to find a solution. In August 1898, the parish council bought land from the civil parish. After several fundraising campaigns and house collections, stone breaking could begin in January 1906. In November 1906, the church council chose the architect August Greifzu and commissioned him to create the drawings. After the building was approved, the cornerstone was laid on June 29, 1908. After only 13 months of construction, the parish church of St. Christopher was consecrated on July 25, 1909 as a three-nave columned basilica in neo-Romanesque style. An identical but smaller version of the parish church was built in Freigericht-Bernbach. Between 1973 and 1983 three extensive renovations were carried out to preserve the parish church. During the first service after the renovation work on December 17, 1983, the newly acquired Fischer-Krämer organ was inaugurated.
