St. Johannes Evangelist

The Jakobuskirche, also called Spitalkirche, is a Romanesque church first mentioned in 1377, built around 1200 as a Romanesque chapel. It was rebuilt in its present form from 1500. After the secularisation of 1806, the church was used by both Catholics and Protestants, but from the 1870s onwards, it became a purely Protestant church again. The relatively dark neo-Gothic windows in the chancel were replaced in 1975 by much brighter windows decorated with roses, designed by Gisela Dreher-Richels.

St. Martin's Cathedral in Rottenburg am Neckar was built from a 13th-century chapel whose Romanesque tower still projects into the church's choir today. The town fire in 1644 necessitated a fundamental reconstruction, which was completed with the consecration of the church in 1655. In 1821, a diocese was founded for the kingdom of Württemberg, and Rottenburg, as the city with the highest Catholic population, was designated as the episcopal see.

The Stiftskirche is a church of the Evangelical Lutheran Church and a well-known building in the city because of its irregular towers. Built from the 10th century, it is the only surviving architectural testimony of the Hohenstaufen period in Stuttgart.
