Kostel byl postaven na starších základech mezi lety 1585-94. K rozšíření a významné barokizující přestavbě kostela došlo v letech 1700-03, pravděpodobně pod vedením zednického mistra Kristiana Laglera. Kostel je trojlodní basilikou s pravoúhlým presbytářem a hranolovou věží v západním průčelí, ke které přiléhá malá schodišťová válcová věž. V nejvyšším patře je hranolová věž zúžena a obehnána pavlačí, za kterou se nacházel byt hlásného. Věž je kryta charakteristickou barokní přílbovou střechou, kterou získala právě při poslední velké přestavbě r. 1703. Výhled z ochozu věže můžete zažít na vlastní kůži. Součástí návštěvy je výklad o historii a architektuře města, prohlédnout si můžete i výstavu papírových modelů věží a rozhleden (expozice se s časem mění). Zajímavost: Pod kostelem se nachází hrobky dvou šlechtických rodů – držitelů Teplic: Vchynských a Clary-Aldringenů. The church was built on older foundations between 1585-94. The expansion and significant baroque rebuilding of the church took place in 1700-03, probably led by mason master Kristian Lagler. The church is a three-nave basilica with a rectangular presbytery and a prismatic tower on the western façade, adjacent to a small staircase tower. On the top floor, the prismatic tower is narrowed and surrounded by a pavilion behind which the apartment of fire watcher was located. The tower is covered by a characteristic Baroque pillar roof that was acquired at the last major reconstruction in 1703. You can experience the view from the tower's gallery by yourself. Part of the visit is an exposition about the history and architecture of the city, and you can also see the exhibition of paper lookout towers (the exhibition changes over time). Interesting: Under the church there are tombs of two aristocratic families - holders of Teplice: Vchyn and Clary-Aldringen.

The tower is covered with a characteristic Baroque helmet roof, which it received during the last major reconstruction in 1703. You can experience the view from the gallery of the tower first-hand. The visit includes an explanation of the history and architecture of the city, you can also see an exhibition of paper models of towers and lookout towers (the exhibition changes over time).
