The church dates from 1863 and is a simple rubble stone building with a rectangular base running east to west. Access to the east leads through a park-like forecourt.

Great artists in the red wine city Andy Warhol, Chagall, Miró, Picasso, Rembrandt, Dürer, Goya and Paul Klee - to name just a few - have already found their way to Ingelheim.
