Reformed church, Gothic church in Küsnacht, Switzerland.

The Reformed Church of Küsnacht is a Gothic country church dedicated to Saint George. Its parts differ clearly in roof height: a large hipped roof covers the nave, and a raised polygonal choir with an octagonal roof turret stands at the east end. High traceried windows pierce the facades, and the former Hospitaller buildings adjoin the west side.

The building was constructed during the Gothic period and has shaped the appearance of the locality for centuries. It holds the classification as a Class B Swiss cultural property, recognizing its architectural importance to the Zürich region.

The church is dedicated to Saint George, whose patronage is first recorded in 1332. Under the last commander Konrad Schmid, a friend of Huldrych Zwingli, the Knights Hospitaller adopted the Reformation despite resistance, and the church became a Reformed place of worship. The 1482 choir paintings were whitewashed and only rediscovered in 1886 behind the wooden panelling.

The church stands in the village centre of Küsnacht, a short walk from the lake shore and the railway station. The former Johanniter buildings adjoining it to the west now house part of the cantonal school. The tower was rebuilt in 1755 and given its neo-Gothic form with pinnacles by Johann Caspar Wolff in 1857.

The church is actively used by the reformed community, demonstrating the connection between its medieval architecture and the Protestant history of the area. Its proximity to Lake Zürich gives the structure a distinctive position within the local landscape.
