    According to legend, Ansgar founded a wooden church or wooden chapel at this location. In addition to Schenefeld, Nortorf and Jevenstedt, Kellinghusen was one of the four Holstein Urkirchspiele. In 1154 the church was built by monks from the monastery founded by Vizelin in Wippendorf (Neumünster). According to entries in the Stellau church book, Pastor Bielefeld found a stone in the foundation wall of the tower in 1728, according to which the church was built in 1154 and consecrated to Cyriacus.

    The church was first mentioned in 1196 and the first priest Johannes de Kelenghusen was attested. After the Reformation, Henricus Fischer was the first Evangelical Lutheran preacher in 1529. On June 26, 1686, lightning struck the church, whereupon it burned down to the church walls. In the same year it was able to be rebuilt and inaugurated. However, the church remained without a tower until 1729 due to lack of money.

    In 1727 a renovation began, led by master builder Johann Georg Schott from Heide. In 1729 the nave was lengthened and the tower was rebuilt, with a golden cock on the top. At the same time the church received a new pulpit and a new altar.

    From 1809–1839 the deacon Christian Kuss, known as a historian, worked. In 1879, Kellinghusen, which had previously belonged to the Rendsburg provost, was incorporated into the Rantzau provost by the new Schleswig-Holstein regional church. On July 25, 1929, the church burned down again, this time caused by a short circuit in the organ electrics. The entire baroque furnishings as well as the tower were destroyed, the field stone walls were again preserved. In 1930 the church was rebuilt and consecrated on March 15, 1931.

        One of the oldest churches in the area, built around 1154 out of fieldstone. Be sure to visit during the pottery market.
