Stadtkirche St. Dionys, Gothic church building in Esslingen am Neckar, Germany

The Stadtkirche St. Dionys features two distinct towers from different periods, with the north tower dating to 1330 and the south tower to 1440.

The first religious structure at this location appeared around 700 CE, followed by multiple churches before the current Gothic building emerged in the 13th century.

The church contains medieval stained glass windows, a high altarpiece from 1604, and choir stalls from 1518 that accommodated forty secular priests.

The underground excavation museum displays the foundation walls of previous churches, providing direct evidence of the site's architectural evolution through centuries.

The church houses the second-largest organ in Württemberg, constructed in 1754 by Sigismund Haußdörfer and modified in 1904 with approximately 6,550 pipes.
