It was Christina Charlotte of Württemberg (1645-1699), a noble woman of the house of Württemberg, who ordered the construction of the church in 1675. She arranged demolition material of the closed monastery of Thedinga (near Nüttermoor) to build the new church in Leer. From 1706 until 1710 and in 1738, the church was enlarged. Because of this enlargement, it was possible to build a bell tower on top of the building in 1766. To make space for a bigger organ, the building was enlarged again in 1793. The final construction works to the church were in 1882, when they build a southern wing.

At the request of the military governor, Admiral MP Lazarev, the Russian Emperor Nicholas I approved the project of building the temple on 18 August 1848. The Englishman Charles Ackroyd was appointed architect for the project.

The Lutheran Church of Odessa was built in the 19th century to attract German settlers to the Russian Empire. The first Lutheran church was built between 1825 and 1827.

After decades of abandonment after World War II, the church was handed over to the German Evangelical Lutheran Church and restoration work began.

The Lutheran church of Siófok was built in the 1980s in an organic style according to the plans of Imre Makovecz. Much of the wood needed for the construction of the church was sent from Oulu, Siófok's twin town, so the public space around the church was named Oulu Park. One of the seven towers of the Hungarian pavilion at the World Exhibition in Seville in 1992 served as a model for the tower of this church.
