The parish was first mentioned in the 12th century. The three-bay Romanesque hall church has a transept which, together with the choir, dates back to the 12th century. The nave and west tower date back to the 13th century. In 1910/11, the plans for the extension of the St. Blasius parish church with its huge oval octagonal dome were drawn up by Aachen professor Dr. Joseph Buchkremer. In 1914, important wall paintings were discovered under three layers of paint in the apse. The oldest paintings are believed to date back to the mid-13th century. In the apse we see Christ as Judge of the World with saints and apostles, in the side apse a frieze with scenes from the legend of St. Nicholas. A special feature of the exterior is the transverse gable roofs above the side aisles. One side aisle portal shows the typical Westphalian three-field motif (Nativity, Crucifixion and Women at the Tomb) in the tympanum. The tympanum of the tower portal shows the motif of the Ascension of Christ.
The parish church is open to visitors from 9.00 am to 5.00 pm.
