The church was built between 1000 and 1200, enlarged in 1772 and renovated in 1987. The first documented mention dates back to 1204. It is a three-bay hall church with a west tower. The sacristy, built later, borders on the south side of the central and eastern bay. Because of its location a few hundred meters from the banks of the Weser, the Ovenstadt Church is also known as the "Weser Church".

The Evangelical Apostle Church in Ovenstädt is Romanesque in its original core. It was first mentioned in 1204, but is considerably older. The historic baptismal font dates back to 1100. The tower, with a loophole on the south side, served as a place of refuge and defense for the population. After being destroyed in the Thirty Years' War, the church was rebuilt in 1640 and converted into a late baroque peasant church in 1772, with pictures of the apostles on the organ gallery. It has been preserved in its original form to this day: a historical rarity!
