    The construction of St. Antonius Church in Bispingen was decided in 1899, the foundation stone was laid nine years later, and on November 8, 1908, the completion of the neo-Gothic church, which cost 107,000 marks and was designed and built by Eduard Wendebourg.
    For the base and the masonry of the tower, erratic boulders from the surrounding area were used, and for the rest of the construction, approx. one million bricks were used from the brickworks in Brackel. The pulpit, the altarpiece, and the bronze baptismal font were taken over from the Ole Kerk.

    Beautiful brick church, north German style
    Translated by
    The neo-Gothic St. Anthony's Church was designed by architect Eduard Wendebourg and completed in 1908. Of artistic interest are the pulpit from 1648 and the bronze baptismal font from 1406, which were taken from the Old Church. The organ is a Baroque-style two-manual instrument with 22 stops, built in 1974 by the Ott company. The organ was renovated in 1991 by the von Beckerath company. Boulders from the surrounding area were used for the base and the tower's brickwork.
