Almost six centuries of its existence, the chapel of St. Valentine has repeatedly passed from hand to hand to different people and churches, changed its purpose and appearance. Probably no Church building of Ulm has such a rich history.

In the 13th-14th century on the spot where now stands the chapel of St. Valentina, was a huge monastery wine cellars, because Ulm at the time was a "staging post" in the trade in sparkling wine. In 1458 resident of the city of Henry Rumbold built a chapel — a family tomb, in the crypt of which were used in the same wine cellar. A small Catholic Church was consecrated in honor of St. Valentine, the patron Saint of the kind of Rambaldo. After the reformation, the chapel lost its spiritual purpose and was used by the townspeople as a beer warehouse, packing yarn and other needs. During this period, the chapel has even received the nickname "Greasy chapel" for keeping her 1200 pounds of fat, purchased by the city Council for the needy.

Rescuing the chapel of St. Valentina from rebuilding, or demolition during the rebuilding of the Cathedral square, in the late 19th century it was bought at auction Ulm drawing teacher Eduard Mauch. He subsequently began the first restoration of the Church.

After the second world war (during which the basement of the chapel was used as a bomb shelter) began the revival as a cult building. Since 1945, the chapel was occupied by the Russian Orthodox Church, which had at that time a pretty large community. After its collapse, in the chapel of the Liturgy, the Greeks and Serbs. Since 1994, the chapel of St. Valentine again is under the jurisdiction of the Russian Orthodox Church.
