St. Salvator Nördlingen, Catholic parish church in Nördlingen, Germany.
St. Salvator in Nördlingen is a Catholic parish church distinguished by its simple exterior with a plain bell gable replacing the typical church tower. The structure evolved from its origins as a Carmelite monastery building into its current religious purpose.
A miraculous host relic from 1381 inspired the church's foundation in the early 15th century. The building received its consecration in 1422 and has served the local community ever since.
The western entrance displays a 1420 portal carved with a Last Judgment scene by master builders from the Parler workshop. Visitors can see the detailed craftsmanship of this renowned family of artisans directly when entering the church.
The building underwent major restoration work between 2001 and 2012, ensuring good condition inside. Visitors will find the interior well-maintained and accessible for comfortable viewing.
Three stained glass windows designed by Professor Johannes Schreiter in 2006 blend modern artistry with the medieval sacred space. These newer artworks create a striking contrast to the church's historical architecture.
