Röttler Kirche

Röttler Kirche is a church in Lörrach with a rectangular layout, no separated choir area, a northeastern tower topped with a conical roof, and an eastern burial chapel. The interior shows a simple design while preserving late medieval artistic elements in its funerary decorations.

First documented in 751 in Saint Gallen monastery records, the church required rebuilding after the Basel earthquake of 1356 caused severe damage. The structure was reconstructed in 1401 and has retained this form since then.

The burial chapel holds the tomb of Margrave Rudolf III and his wife Anna, decorated with painted stones that showcase late Gothic funerary art. These ornate carved and colored works from the late medieval period remain visible to visitors today.

The church is open to visitors during regular hours and can be visited while walking through Lörrach. The location is in the southern part of town and easily accessible on foot.

The current organ has two manuals, pedals, and 19 registers, replacing earlier instruments that date before 1678. This replacement shows how the church has maintained its musical traditions across different time periods.
