Pauluskirche, Protestant church in eastern Ulm, Germany

The Pauluskirche is a Protestant church on Frauenstraße, north of the Old Cemetery in eastern Ulm. Its two towers, over 50 metres high and shaped like pomegranates, stand at the east end and are meant to recall Syrian domes; at the west end a cylindrical section housing the organ gallery is partly set in front of the nave. The interior has a wide, pillarless vault of exposed concrete held by trusses in the form of the Fischerbogen.

The building was constructed between 1908 and 1910 following designs by architect Theodor Fischer as a Protestant garrison church. It marked a turning point in construction history by pioneering the use of reinforced concrete in church building.

The church's name comes from the Paulusgemeinde, and it still hosts military services for Ulm's garrison chaplains, though military concerts there have repeatedly drawn small protests. Each year after Christmas the Vesperkirche Ulm runs for several weeks: guests receive meal packages or a hot meal for a symbolic price, plus medical care and counselling, and up to 600 people come daily.

The church is located at Frauenstraße 110 and is accessible through a website with information about services and events. Visitors can explore the space during regular opening times or attend concerts and worship services.

The wide, column-free vault is held by concrete trusses shaped as the so-called Fischerbogen, named after the architect Theodor Fischer. The two towers, over 50 metres high, are shaped like pomegranates and are meant to recall Syrian domes. The tower pair repeats the design of Fischer's village church in Gaggstatt, built 1902 to 1905.
