In 1900 the foundation stone was laid for the mother house church on the Fronberg in Kaiserwerth. An angled two- or three-storey brick building was created with numerous decorative elements in neo-Gothic forms and two representative front sides. The bell tower and clock tower each emphasize the entrance axes. In 1903 the church of the deaconess institute founded by Theodor Fliedner was inaugurated. The church, which has been remodeled several times, stands together with a large number of individual buildings of the Kaiserswerther Diakonie in a park-like environment interspersed with mighty trees. kuladig.de/Object-View/BODEON-66136-13062019-293780

The church tower was shortened in the post-war period because it was in the flight path of an occupying military airfield.

In 1903 the motherhouse church was inaugurated under what was then called the Deaconess Church. The original church had become too small and the deaconess institution founded by Theodor Fliedner now preferred to use this place of worship. The motherhouse church has been rebuilt several times since its existence. In 1949 the tower was shortened because it was in the flight path of Allied military aircraft. At the end of the 1950s, the building was completely renovated to give it its current appearance.
