Nearly six centuries of its existence, Chapel St. Valentine has repeatedly passed from hand to hand of different people and churches, it changed its function and appearance. Probably no church building of Ulm does not have such a rich history.

In the 13-14 century in the place where now stands the Chapel of St. Valentine was a huge monastery cellars, after all Ulm at the time was a "staging post" in the trade of sparkling wine. In 1458 a resident of Henry Rembold built a chapel - the tomb of the family, as a crypt which were used those same wineries. A small Catholic church was consecrated in honor of St. Valentine, the patron saint of sorts Rembold. After the Reformation Chapel lost its spiritual purpose and the citizens began to be used as a beer warehouse space for filling yarn and other needs. During this period the chapel even got his nickname "The sebaceous chapel" for storage in her 1200 pounds of bacon, purchased by the City Council for the needy.

Saving Chapel St. Valentine by restructuring or demolition during the reconstruction of the Cathedral Square, in the late 19th century it was bought at auction Ulm art teacher Edward Mauch. It was he who later started the first restoration of the church.

After World War II (during which the basements of the chapel was used as a bomb shelter) as the revival of religious buildings. Since 1945, the chapel served the Russian Orthodox Church, which had at that time a pretty big community. After its collapse in the chapel of worship made the Greeks and Serbs. Since 1994, the Chapel of St. Valentine is back in charge of the Russian Orthodox Church.
