Jesuitenkirche Innsbruck, Baroque Jesuit church in Innsbruck, Austria

Jesuitenkirche Innsbruck is a baroque church in Austria with distinctive twin towers, a soaring dome, and elaborate stucco work throughout its interior. Inside, the space features gilded decorations, an impressive organ, and various religious artworks that reflect the period's architectural style.

A first Jesuit church on this site, built 1568–1571 under Archduke Ferdinand II, was replaced by a larger one after an earlier domed design of 1616–1622 collapsed in 1626. Under Leopold V, Karl Fontaner and Christoph Gumpp the Younger built the present church from 1627; it was consecrated on 21 January 1646. The twin facade towers by Friedrich Schachner followed in 1901, donated by Johann von Sieberer.

The square in front of the church was renamed Karl-Rahner-Platz in honour of the Jesuit theologian Karl Rahner, who is buried in the crypt. The north tower's Schützenglocke, cast by Grassmayr in 1959, sounds every Friday at three in the afternoon in memory of Christ's death.

The church stands on Karl-Rahner-Platz, east of the old town near the Alte Universität. The main entrance is on the south side; the crypt holds eleven princely tombs, including Archduke Leopold V and his wife Claudia de' Medici. The north tower's Schützenglocke sounds Fridays at three in memory of Christ's death.

The north tower's Schützenglocke weighs 9,200 kg and was cast by Grassmayr in 1959, blessed on 19 July for the 150th anniversary of the Tyrolean liberation battles. It rings every Friday at three in the afternoon in memory of Christ's death and on major feast days. The south tower holds a smaller bell of 1597, about 1,300 kg, rung for Mass and the Angelus.
