In the middle of the village is the neo-Gothic brick church of St. Michael, which has shaped the townscape of Heemsen in its present form since 1864. However, their origins go back much further into the past.
The old church tower with its medieval baptistery in the entrance is still evidence of the originally built in the same place church, which had become too small for the people from the parish of Heems with the villages Gadesbünden, Lichtenmoor and Rohrsen in the 19th century. This oldest part was probably built in the middle of the 13th century by the Probst of the Bremen Willehardistift. The building was one of the rare brick Romanesque church buildings.
Even today, the community celebrates their baptisms around the medieval baptismal font in the entrance. A symbolism that symbolizes the idea of baptism: it is the entrance, so to speak the ticket to the ecclesial community.
The "new building" from the middle of the 19th century offers space for over 600 worshipers. On big days of festivities all space is needed, in other times the community likes to get closer together. With the great renovation of the church in 1977, the old, uncomfortable church benches were replaced by chairs. Since then, the bright church space offers various possibilities for lively worship and community events. In addition to the traditional Sunday services, the community invites you to many special forms: from table-supper celebrations and devotions in the great altar room to family worship services with various stations for your own experience to the church coffee after the services.
In the next few years, the outer masonry is to be repaired.
