The church stands high above the medieval town on the Eichberg.
It is dedicated to Saint Nicholas of Myra and is a landmark of Mölln.

Construction is assumed to have begun at the end of the 12th or the first quarter of the 13th century, since, according to the list of the Ratzeburg cathedral chapter, the town of Mölln still belonged to the parish of Breitenfelde around 1194 and is itself mentioned as a place with a church in the Ratzeburg tithe register from 1230.

The Gotland limestone slab with the image of Till Eulenspiegel on the west side of the tower near the entrance, often referred to as a “tombstone”, is not a grave slab for the fool who allegedly died in Mölln in 1350 as a result of the plague, but a commemorative slab that was made between 1530 and May have originated in 1550.
