Hiking

It is worth visiting the church from the inside. Even if the actual chancel appears rather plain at first glance, there are two beautiful wooden reliefs of the birth and resurrection of Christ by the artist Anton Rüller from Münster in the church's altar area. The stations of the Passion of Jesus are also illustrated with very beautiful wooden reliefs. If the sun is in the right position, you can also take a good look at the choir window made by J. Matschinski's stained glass with its theologically interesting program.

The Catholic church was built in 1890.
The church tower was not built until 47 years later.
In 2020, the heavy altar was restored in Bevergern after a heavy load transport.

The church was built in 1890, initially without a steeple, as a branch church of the St. Dionysius parish in Recke.
The tower (1937), with its Gothic-style pointed-arch windows and rose windows, is topped with a Baroque curved spire.
