    After the Second World War, the town of Espelkamp became a place of refuge for many displaced persons. The first church to be built in the city was the Catholic Church in 1952. Initially, as a parish vicarage, it bore the name Liebfrauengemeinde. Raised to the status of a parish in 1977, it is called St. Marien, after Mary, the mother of Jesus. Patronal festival is August 15th. Refugees from the former eastern German territories formed the core of the community.

    The town of Espelkamp became a refuge for many displaced people after the Second World War. The first new church building in the city was the Catholic church in 1952. Initially, as a parish vicarie, it was called the Liebfrauengemeinde. It was only elevated to a parish in 1977 that it was called St. Mary's, after Mary, the mother of Jesus. Patron festival is August 15th. The core of the community was made up of refugees from the former German eastern territories.
