St. Salvator Nördlingen

The church features a simple exterior with an unadorned bell gable instead of a traditional tower, reflecting its origins as a Carmelite monastery building.

Following a miraculous event involving a host in 1381, the construction of St. Salvator began in the early 15th century and received consecration in 1422.

The western portal from 1420 displays a Last Judgment scene in its tympanum, created by the master builders of the Parler family from Schwäbisch Gmünd.

The church underwent extensive renovations between 2001 and 2012, requiring an investment of 2.43 million euros to preserve its structural integrity.

Three stained glass windows, designed by Professor Johannes Schreiter in 2006, incorporate modern artistry into the medieval religious structure.
