    Egen, the smallest church village in Wipperfürth, is located on a hill between Ennepe and Wupper near the Bever and Neye dams.
    In a cultural landscape created by agriculture, you can enjoy nature and the landscape very well.

      On September 8, 1851, the church was consecrated by Dean Wilhelm Dünner, the pastor of Wipperfürth, and received the patronage of the "Immaculate Conception."
      In 1911, the church was expanded with the construction of the tower, the choir, and the sacristy.
      In 1912, Hubert Dörpinghaus of Güttenhausen donated three bells to the church.
