The church was built by the evangelical citizens with the master builder Ulrich Meyer from Zurich, the foundation stone was laid in 1649, the consecration took place in 1651. In 1674 the church building was taken away from the evangelical community by force as part of the Counter-Reformation and in 1680 it was re-consecrated as a Catholic church. In 1976 the exterior was restored.
