Elle fut dédiée en premier lieu à sainte Barbe qui fut plus tard associée à sainte Marie-Madeleine. Avec la Réforme (introduite en 1570 par Philippe IV) l'église passa aux protestants (luthériens). Le simultaneum fut introduit en 1682 et supprimé en 1893 [...] La partie la plus ancienne de l'église correspond aux deux niveaux inférieurs du clocher, ancienne tour-choeur, dont la construction se situe au 12e siècle [...] En 1959 la nef fut à nouveau ouverte sur l'ancien choeur roman qui fut aménagé en chapelle baptismale".
