St. Johann Baptist, Parish church in Solln, Munich, Germany.

St. Johann Baptist is a Roman Catholic parish church at Fellererplatz 8 in Solln, Munich, built 1904–1905 to a design by Franz Rank. Its white walls, steep red tiled roof and 64-metre tower with a green onion dome and clock face rise above a lower arcaded section. Inside, a white barrel-vaulted ceiling spans the nave, with light-oak pews facing a narrower chancel.

The old Solln church became too small after the population grew at the end of the 19th century, helped by the Isartalbahn railway. An 1893 church building association pushed for a new church, and Franz Rank won the 1903 architectural competition with the entry "Bodenständig". The foundation stone was laid in 1904 and the church was completed in 1905; Solln became an independent parish in 1920.

The parish became independent in 1920, before which Solln belonged to the Pullach-Solln parish seated in Pullach. Two late-Gothic carved figures came here in 1966 from the old Solln church: a Gnadenstuhl attributed to the circle of Erasmus Grasser or the Master of Rabenden (around 1511–1515) above the tabernacle, and a Rosary Madonna with Child (around 1510) left of the chancel arch.

The church stands at Fellererplatz 8, west of which is the listed parish house built in 1906; church, parish house and school were designed by the same architect. The south portal is a stone copy of the mannerist portal of Tückelhausen monastery, set in a long porch. The tower on the north flank is 64 m high.

The south portal is a late 19th-century stone copy of the mannerist church portal of Tückelhausen Abbey; its installation was a condition of the 1903 competition, and the long porch in front of it exists because of the style gap between portal and church.
