In 1898 the Missionary Society of Steyler Missionaries was founded in St. Wendel by Father Arnold Janssen and the mission house was then built. The complex includes the ethnological museum, the mission bookstore and the mission house church. The mission house church has the shape of a cross.

The huge triumphal cross hangs down from the choir arch and the numerous colored windows impress with their stained glass.
