The church dates from the 13th century. The interior consists of an altar shrine from the 15th century, a Romanesque granite baptism, a pulpit from 1630 and a sacristy door from 1680. Outside the church there is a cemetery with "talking" gravestones. These tell the life story of the Föhrer whalers and captains.

The church was founded in the second half of the 12th century. For the first time it is mentioned in a church register of 1240. The long history of St. Lawrence Church dates back to the Middle Ages. The remains of the first Romanesque church and the vestiges of heavy boulder granite can still be seen on the exterior walls. Probably only a few years after its completion, there was an extensive extension with bricks in the second quarter of the 13th century, the western extension with two new entrances as well as the new large choir and the apse. The Norderquerhaus was cultivated at the eastern end of the nave, probably stimulated by the transepts of St. John's Church in Nieblum. With the last major construction period in the 15th century, the mighty tower was built, probably again after the model of Nieblumer church, which got its tower, however, already in the 13th century. In addition, the church got late Gothic vaults in the nave. st-laurentii.de/die-kirche
