History

The first church was built in Nekielka by settlers in 1754. The church served not only the settlers but also the residents of nearby villages. In 1881 the original building was demolished and rebuilt in a neo-gothic style. The new building was consecrated on 8 October 1884 and later renovated in 1907. During World War II the church used to store weapons; after the war, it was used as warehouse. In 1992 Tschurl-Karen family bought the building. In 2005 a memorial plaque was placed in it to commemorate the area's Hauländer settlers.

The current function

Currently, the building serves as the church hall.
