    "The Protestant church in Ringenberg was built in the second half of the 18th century according to plans by the Dutch architect Vierevandt from Arnhem and consecrated in 1754.

    It consists of an elongated octagonal brick building and a 3-storey tower in the simple Dutch Baroque style. The tower has a tail cap on an octagon. The church dates back to a castle chapel mentioned as early as the 14th century. As early as 1571, the originally Catholic church was transferred to the Evangelical Lutheran community. The building was destroyed in the Thirty Years' War. The direct predecessor building was built from 1660/1661 and was so dilapidated in the 18th century that it had to be demolished. In 1907 and 1908, the church building from 1754 was extensively renovated and restored. The war damage at the end of the Second World War required the restoration of the coved framed mirror ceiling. However, the epitaphs in memory of the family members of the former lords of the castle, von Spaen, were irretrievably lost. Only a marble slab from 1768 in memory of Alexander Sweder von Spaen remained."
