Zwölf-Apostel-Kirche, Frankenthal, Protestant church in central Frankenthal, Germany

The Zwölf-Apostel-Kirche displays Neoclassical architecture with a prominent portico entrance and stands as the principal religious structure of the Frankenthal district.

Built between 1820 and 1823 by architect Johann Philipp Mattlener, the church experienced substantial damage during the 1943 air raids of World War II.

The interior configuration features twelve oval columns supporting the ceiling, galleries, and organ, reflecting both Protestant architectural principles and post-war reconstruction.

Visitors can arrange church tours through the parish office by calling 06233-8808-0 or sending an email to pfarramt.frankenthal@bistum-speyer.de.

The church tower, measuring 94 meters, incorporates elements from the historic Erkenbert ruins and contains five named bells producing different musical tones.
