The parish church of St. Nicholas in Spangdahlem was built in 1874/75 according to plans by the architect Heinrich Bruck from Wittlich. The neo-Gothic hall building is made of red sandstone, a building material typical for the region. The use of hewn red sandstone gives the church its characteristic appearance. This material was used both for the external façade and for decorative elements such as window and door frames.
