    The Holy Spirit Church was built in 1929/30 according to plans by the government architect Bensel
    from Hamburg. The sculptor Walter von Ruckteschell was commissioned to design the altar area, creating the crucifix with a relief of the crucified Christ and the two adoring angels.


    On July 14, 1950, the church burned down almost to its foundations.

    The crucifix, which could not be salvaged in time, miraculously survived the fire with only minor damage.

    Under church building director Langmaak, the church was rebuilt shortly thereafter,
    with some changes.


    In contrast to the original church, the leaded round windows were replaced with larger ones, and a porch was added to make room for a hall and
    an organ loft. The new organ, designed by local organ builder Rudolf Beckerath, was installed on it. The church was finally re-consecrated on Christmas Eve 1950.


    In 1957, it was officially renamed the Holy Spirit Church.
