The small, inconspicuous village church in Leegebruch emerged from a former hospital barracks that were erected in Leegebruch after the Second World War to create a meeting room for the parish. In the 1960s, the wooden barracks were rebuilt in sections and erected as a brick building. The church offers space for around 250 people

A first church was first mentioned in a document in 1375. [2] The existing church building was built in 1739 after the earlier, probably half-timbered village church burned down in May 1727. The parsonage and animal stalls as well as a number of writings and books were also destroyed. - Another fire in the middle of the 19th century destroyed the church tower, which was rebuilt by 1861. more information: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dorfkirche_Germendorf
