St. Aposteln, Catholic church in Viernheim, Germany.

The Apostelkirche features a three-nave hall design with a broad transept and spans 65 meters in length and 33 meters in width.

The construction of St. Aposteln took place from 1896 to 1899, following designs by architect Max Meckel, and Bishop Heinrich Brück consecrated it in 1900.

The interior displays Nazarene-style canvas paintings depicting a cycle of Christ created by Julius Fischer, alongside stained glass windows designed by Bernhard Kraus.

The church serves the parish of Johannes XXIII within the Diocese of Mainz and contains five altars with elements from the Münzenberger collection.

The church tower rises to 75 meters and houses the largest organ in Viernheim, built in 1903 by Schlimbach from Würzburg with 38 registers.
