The Evangelical Lutheran Church was built in 1643 and has the largest number of parishioners. The hall church based on the Dutch model is located directly on the Mittelburgwall. The construction of their tower proved to be a real challenge. The soft ground could hardly support the heavy tower, which is why it was finally erected on granite ashlars of a demolished lock. The painting above the altar was made by Rembrandt's student Jürgen Ovens. It shows the lamentation of Christ.
