The origins of the Laurentius Church in Hütten go back to the 12th/13th centuries. century back. In 1472, Konrad Mendel, a landowner in Steinfels, Hütten and Grub, had the Laurentius Church built in its present form - at that time still without a tower and without a sacristy. At the same time he donated a house, income and livelihood for a clergyman in Hütten. In 1569, the Hütteners had to become Protestant because of their rulers, the Elector Palatine and the Dukes of Neuburg. The church therefore served as a Lutheran parish church until 1627. In the years that followed, the religion of the Hütteners changed several times. After the religious struggles of the Thirty Years' War, Count Palatine Christian August wanted to ensure lasting peace between the denominations in his principality of Sulzbach. In the so-called Cologne settlement with his cousin, Hereditary Prince Philipp Wilhelm von Neuburg, he therefore stipulated the simultaneous use of the churches in 1652. The church was then used for centuries by communities of both denominations - unfortunately not always without tension. In the years that followed, the owner families of this church, which is still privately owned, changed. In the middle of the 19th century it received a tower and in 1922 today's sacristy extension.
