From 1852 to 1857, a neo-Gothic church was added to the north side of the old parish church according to plans by the Cologne Cathedral master craftsman Vincenz Statz, dedicated to St. Cyriac and St. Barbara. During renovations of the old church from 1886 to 1888, medieval wall paintings were discovered, which have been uncovered since 1897.
