originally there was a chapel, which was upgraded to a church in 1394 by a donation from the von Lenthe family. It was dedicated to the martyrdom of 10,000 knights, a legend from the times of the Crusades. In the 18th century, the now evangelical church was fundamentally rebuilt again

The Lenthe Church was donated to the village in 1394 by the von Lenthe family. It was dedicated to the martyrdom of the 10,000 knights, a legend about killed crusaders.
The altar that depicts this is now in the Northen Chapel.
The Lenthe Church now belongs to the Protestant parish of Gehrden.
