In a study conducted by the National Bureau for Archaeological Heritage Research, it was established that the church was built around 1050. In a deed from 1188, the parish of Dodewaard is mentioned for the first time among the goods of the Count of Dalen. In a letter from 1316, a parish church is mentioned, in which a valuable cross was said to have been located, which already enjoyed a certain fame at the time and was transferred to the collegiate church of St. Walburg in Arnhem because of the "unsafe" in Dodewaard. In this letter from 1316 by Reinald I of Gelre, Dodewaard, which had to give up its relic cross to Arnhem, is called an unsafe and unpopulated place. However, the tendency of this letter justifies doubt about the correctness of this mention. Reinald was looking for a reason to donate the cross to the newly established church in Arnhem, which he had endowed. The church of Dodewaard appears on a list of churches from 1395. In the confirmation of a donation on 16 October 1410, "the parishes of Dodewerde and Hyen" were mentioned. In 1613, the first minister, Hermannus van Broekhutzen, was confirmed "in the church service of Hien and Doyweert".
