There used to be a church on site, possibly built in Romanesque style. In the 12th century, the tithing right and the patronage right of the Sint-Hubertus parish were in the hands of Dirk van Pietersheim, lord of Membruggen, who around 1280 donated these rights to the Van Hocht Abbey in Lanaken, which he founded. In 1401 the church even came directly under this abbey. From then on all the income of the parish belonged to the Abbey, which had to pay an appropriate share to the priest. The three-aisled church was enlarged in 1666 to accommodate the population growth. Due to lack of maintenance, the tower collapsed on July 28, 1726, causing considerable damage to the church. The tower clock turned out to be undamaged under the rubble. The reconstruction took place in 1730. It was now a smaller one-aisled church, which could only accommodate 400 instead of 600 people. The side aisles were not added until around 1750 and the tower was repaired in 1757. In 1796 the abbey of Hocht was closed and since then the pastors have been appointed by the diocese. The current church was built in 1872, replacing the old church. The lower part of the rebuilt tower has been reused in the new building. In 1899, the church and the tower were expanded with a choir aisle, a staircase tower and a baptistery. The current building is a three-aisled brick pseudo-basilica in neo-Romanesque style. The square west tower is made of marlstone. The lower part dates from 1757 and was spared during the construction of the new church.
