Reformed church, Protestant church building in Meilen, Switzerland

The Reformed Church of Meilen stands on the Seestrasse in Meilen, canton Zürich. Its core was built in the 7th century by wealthy local winegrowers; the building was rebuilt from 1493 to 1495 inspired by Zürich's Wasserkirche, and the present tower dates from 1514 to 1518. The interior was refitted in Renaissance style in 1683–1686, when the walls received Baroque decoration; the basic structure has not changed for 500 years.

The church was built in the 7th century by wealthy winegrowers from Meilen. Inspired by Zurich's Wasserkirche, it was rebuilt between 1493 and 1495, and the present tower followed from 1514 to 1518. The interior was remodelled in Renaissance style in 1683–1686, the same years the walls received Baroque decoration; a renovation took place in 2003/2004, yet the basic structure has not changed for 500 years.

The church's name refers to its role as Meilen's Reformed parish church on the Seestrasse. Its four bells, cast by three different founders, sound in D-flat major. The interior was redesigned in Renaissance style between 1683 and 1686, and the walls were decorated in Baroque style in the same year.

The church stands on Seestrasse in Meilen, on the shore of Lake Zürich, and can be reached on foot from the village centre and the lakefront. The base structure has not been altered for 500 years, so the entrance level and tower base are the historic ones. A renovation took place in 2003/2004.

The four bells ring in D-flat major and were cast by three different bell founders, a detail easily missed from the street. The basic structure has not been altered for 500 years, despite the 2003/2004 renovation.
