The foundation stone of this church dates back to the 14th century. In the years that followed, it underwent several renovations and alterations. After two devastating city fires (1646 and 1703), it had to be rebuilt. It was completely restored and renovated from 2004 to 2007.

The old high altar dates from 1652, and the baptismal font stands on four figures of St. Catherine, cast in bronze in 1486. The organ is a proud 311 years old.
