Construction began in 1902 under architect Arwed Rossbach's designs and the building opened in 1904. It was built during a period when Leipzig's expanding neighborhoods needed new religious buildings to serve growing communities.

The church serves as a gathering place for the Kleinzschocher community, hosting regular services and neighborhood events. It functions as a social center where residents meet for worship and local occasions.

The church is easily accessible within a residential neighborhood with public transport nearby. Visitors should note that opening times for services and tours may vary, so checking in advance is helpful.
