Oberhofenkirche

The town church of Göppingen is one of the largest Protestant churches of the Renaissance. On the present site of the town church there were probably several earlier buildings, the most recent of which is St. John's Chapel, first mentioned in 1348. After the introduction of the Reformation in Göppingen in 1534, the chapel, which was rebuilt in Gothic style after the town fire in 1425, became the town church. Between 1838 and 1845, the dilapidated tower in the south-western corner of the church, which still dates from the time of the town fortifications and St. John's Chapel, was removed and the present tower was built in the centre of the south gable.

The church of St. Dionys dates back to the 13th and 14th centuries. An excavation museum was built under the church on the Esslingen market square in the 1960s. It shows the foundations of the walls of the former churches, attested on this site since 777. The church's greatest treasure is the magnificent stained glass windows in the choir dating from around 1300.

The cathedral church of St. Eberhard has been a cathedral only since 1978. Although the parish dates back to the 10th century, the present building was completed in 1955, the previous one having been destroyed during the Second World War.
