The architect Adrianus Bleijs (1842–1912) designed the church based on a combination of several historicist styles, especially neo-baroque and neo-renaissance.
It was built between 1884 and 1887 and finally consecrated on February 7, 1887. In 1999, the interior of the sacred building was extensively restored. In 2012, it was elevated to a minor basilica.

The organ was built by the organ builder Wilhelm Sauer (Frankfurt/Oder) and was inaugurated in 1889. The instrument was extensively restored in the 1990s. It has 40 registers on three manuals and a pedal. The first and second manuals and the pedal are equipped with Barker machines.

A great basilica that you absolutely have to see. When you leave the main train station, you'll probably notice it straight away. In the evening, the basilica is illuminated and makes for a great photo opportunity.
