Zwinglikirche, Protestant church in Zürich, Switzerland.

The Zwinglihaus is a towerless neo-Romanesque and neo-Classical church at Aemtlerstrasse 23 in Wiedikon, built in 1925 by the brothers Adolf and Heinrich Bräm. Its temple-like facade dominates the corner of Kalkbreite- and Aemtlerstrasse, with a statue of Huldrych Zwingli by Otto Kappeler above a semicircular fountain. Inside, a three-aisled hall with round-arch arcades, sandstone pillars, galleries on all four sides and a dark beamed ceiling; the choir lies southwest.

Wiedikon's Reformed congregation outgrew the 1791 school and prayer house and added the Bühl church in 1896. In the 1910s it decided on a second church near the large families of the Sihlfeld quarter; a 1915 competition drew 84 entries and the jury chose the Wiedikon-born brothers Adolf and Heinrich Bräm. Their church was built in 1925, four years after the neighbouring Catholic Herz Jesu church.

The name refers to Huldrych Zwingli, whose statue by Otto Kappeler stands in a niche above a semicircular fountain on the Aemtlerstrasse facade. The building is used today by Zurich's Reformed Waldensian congregation and the Italian-language Evangelical Church. Inside, paintings in the nave show New Testament scenes by Hermann Huber, Reinhold Kündig and Carl Roesch.

The church sits in a central location in Zürich with good public transport access, served by several tram lines nearby. Visitors can come year-round and join guided tours to learn about the building's design and its role in local history.

The church holds two organs. The older one, built in 1924 by Carl Theodor Kuhn and rebuilt by Maag in 1971, became unplayable in 1979 and still stands silent above the pulpit on the choir side. The working instrument is a mechanical slider-chest organ with 36 stops, built by Metzler in 1984 and revised in 1999 and 2006.
