A single nave church building was erected, which has a suggested apse to the east, but without a recognisable choir room. At first the pulpit was probably located on the south side, where a wall ledge can still be seen today. Those who entered the chapel at that time and had to tilt their heads because of the low entrance door, looked directly at the pulpit.
Also the benches must have been facing east - west. Their inscriptions got mixed up when the benches were rebuilt, because they were simply sawn up and now reinstalled in north-south direction.
A part of the interior was separated by a wall. The resulting room was used as a classroom until the beginning of the 20th century. Then a separate school building was constructed.
In 1903 Kaiser Wilhelm II donated a new bell to the chapel. Three years later, a long-awaited harmonium was finally acquired.
After the 200th anniversary celebrations, the chapel became the property of the parish. Until then it belonged to the political parish.
