The Friedenskirche was the first evangelical church in the Catholic area because of the evangelical workers who had moved there. The local pastor still looks after the boatmen in the west of the canal landscape today.

For more than 100 years, the Friedenskirche has stood at the ship lift. It is one of the oldest evangelical churches in Vest Recklinghausen. Originally inaugurated in 1901 as the "prayer hall of the Waltrop-Datteln evangelical community", today's Friedenskirche was the place of worship and official functions such as weddings and baptisms for many decades. 100 years ago, the evangelical sewer workers created a place of worship and meeting here
