Named after the knight St.Georg (Low German: St.Jürgen). Built as a chapel in 1450, enlarged in 1460 to the church.

In 1611 the church received the 48 m high west tower. Between 1694 and 1696 an extension was built on the south side of the church because the building had become too small for the congregation. In 1724, the Heider builder Johann Georg Schott, who came from Swabia, renovated the magnificent bell tower. In 1880, a coffered ceiling was installed in the interior beneath the old beamed ceiling. The north gallery shows 43 pictures from the 16th and 17th centuries from the Old and New Testaments.

Church on the market - church in the world, that's what St. Jürgen Church in Heide wants to be. Once built as a meeting church for the free farmers of Dithmarschen, its location on Germany's largest market square still bears witness to the church's public function. From here, impulses come from the social and cultural life of the city and the region.

The church, which was built as a chapel around 1435, was named after the knight St. George (Low German: St. Jürgen). In 1559 the church of the conquest of Heide went up in flames by the Danish and Holstein troops. Today's St. Jürgen Church was immediately built on the foundations from field stones in the style of a village hall church and was inaugurated in 1560.
