Like most Catholic churches of this period, the church was built in the Gothic Revival style, with a tower projecting to the south-west and a moulded portal. The church building has stepped buttresses. The north-eastern gable has blind windows. On the ridge of the roof there is a handsome copper-clad turret.
Inside, the vaulted ceilings rest on columns separating the central nave from the side aisles. There is a finely executed altar with the pulpit to its left. Opposite the altar was the organ. The church had a bell.
After the end of the Second World War the church was intact, and a military warehouse was set up in it.
Throughout the post-war period up to the 1990s, when it was handed over to the Roman Catholic Church, it received no exterior repairs. Only inside were the ceilings and walls whitewashed. Paintings could be seen beneath the whitewash. The tower spire was the most damaged part of the church.
Today the church houses the Roman Catholic Church of St Bruno of Querfurt.
