Konstanzer Kirche, Gothic church in Ditzingen, Germany
Konstanzer Kirche is a Gothic house of worship featuring a slender 38-meter tower with three bells and late Gothic design elements from around 1470. The interior has a network-vaulted choir section and can be entered from the north, south, and west sides.
The church was built in the late Gothic period around 1470, while the sacristy as the oldest section may date back to the 14th century. This extended building history shows how the structure developed over several centuries.
The church takes its name from the Diocese of Konstanz, reflecting Ditzingen's position on the boundary between two dioceses. Inside, visitors see Gothic windows and religious scenes lit by natural daylight.
Visitors can enter from three different sides of the building and will find two gallery staircases from the 17th century inside. The multiple entrances allow flexible routes when exploring the interior.
The sacristy is the oldest part of the complex and may have been built as early as the 14th century, long before the main structure. This older core was later integrated into the larger Gothic building.
