Hofkirche, Gothic monastery church in Old Town, Innsbruck, Austria

The Hofkirche is a three-nave hall church built from 1553 to 1563 on Universitätsstraße in Innsbruck's Old Town. Its white-plastered walls, steep broken hip roof and tall square tower with a dark lantern and green onion dome stand beside the Hofburg. The Renaissance portal was carved by Hieronymus de Longhi and Anton del Bon.

Ferdinand I built the church and adjoining Franciscan monastery between 1553 and 1563, consecrated to the Holy Cross, to house the tomb Maximilian I had ordered for Wiener Neustadt's castle chapel. Plans came from Trento architect Andrea Crivelli; Nikolaus Türing the Younger, whose grandfather made the Golden Roof, was master builder, succeeded by Marx della Bolla. Archduke Ferdinand II had the church refitted and added the Silver Chapel in 1577–1578.

The 28 bronze statues around the cenotaph, 200–250 cm tall, were cast between 1502 and 1555 by artists including Peter Vischer the Elder, Veit Stoss and Hans Leinberger; three follow designs by Albrecht Dürer. The figures of King Arthur and Godfrey of Bouillon are said to have entered the programme through Anna of Bohemia, who married Ferdinand and brought her English ancestry with her.

The Hofkirche is one of the five houses of the Tyrolean State Museums and is connected to the Tyrolean Folk Art Museum, so entry and orientation run through the museum complex. The Silver Chapel is reached by a broad staircase at the rear of the nave, above a vault that now forms a gateway on the west side. The church stands at Universitätsstraße 2, next to the Hofburg at the edge of the Old Town.

The 28 bronze statues around the cenotaph were cast between 1502 and 1555, before the church existed; three of them follow designs by Albrecht Dürer. The tomb's 24 white marble reliefs by Alexander Colin derive from woodcuts of Dürer's Triumphal Arch. The kneeling emperor and four virtues on the iron grille were added only in 1584.
