The church village of Kirch Kogel was first mentioned on March 31, 1303.[1] In 1435, the Dobbertin monastery acquired the village.

When the ruling Duke of Mecklenburg-Schwerin, Henry IV, granted the patronage of Kirch Kogel to the Provest Mathias von Weltzin of the Dobbertin monastery on October 18, 1440, this church was expressly mentioned as belonging to Kerk Kowalk, located in the bailiwick of Cracow.[2] In 1445, the parish of Kirch Kogel included not only the Wendisch Kogel (today Rum Kogel), which was described as deserted, but also the parish villages of Reimershagen, Suckwitz and the heath villages of Kleesten and Jellen. In Suckwitz there was a branch chapel, which was no longer mentioned after the 17th century.

The church with its cemetery forms the center of the village and is protected by the old trees and the renewed fieldstone wall.

The early Gothic brick church has a square fieldstone chancel with strong, diagonally placed buttresses, which was built in the second half of the 13th century. Inside, a winged altar with a depiction of the Crucifixion and carved figures from the 15th century catches the eye. The altarpiece was restored in 1883 and received a predella painting depicting the Last Supper. The simple wooden pulpit dates from 1671. The important Lütkemüller organ from 1872 was restored in 1995 by the Kampherm and Steinecke company from Verl. The granite baptismal font from the 13th century stood outside the church for many years, but is now being used again as a baptismal font.
