St. Dominikus, Religious landmark in Kaufbeuren, Germany.

St. Dominikus is a white-plastered hospital church in Kaufbeuren with a dark, steeply pitched roof and a tall tower on its right side, capped by a dark rounded cupola. The tower has narrow vertical openings near the top, a pair of arched windows below and a small round window lower down. An entry porch with its own small roof stands against the main body, and a rounded window sits on the side wall. The side walls and rear wall up to 3.40 m are the city's oldest surviving masonry, Romanesque tuff from the 12th century.

A leper chapel is documented here from 1282; Dominicans took over the site in 1263 and gave it the patronage of St. Dominic. The church was reconsecrated in 1483 after the east wall was demolished for a Gothic choir and a tower base was built. In 1709 it was rebuilt and enlarged in Baroque style, and after World War I it became the city's war memorial church.

St. Dominikus has been open to both Catholics and Protestants since 1624. Today it serves the Roman Catholic parish of St. Ulrich and the Old Catholic congregation of Christi Himmelfahrt Neugablonz, and is used for spiritual concerts and as a popular wedding church. The carved acanthus pattern on the oak pews echoes the altar's gilded ornament.

The church stands beyond the Wertach, outside the old town wall, next to the Siechenhaus that once housed leprosy patients. The tower with its rounded cupola rises on the right of the white facade, and the entry porch has its own small roof. The building serves two congregations and hosts concerts, so it may be closed during services or rehearsals.

The lower 3.40 metres of the side walls and rear wall are considered the oldest surviving structure in Kaufbeuren: Romanesque tuff masonry from a 12th-century hall church, later covered in plaster. The steep gable base of that earlier building is still preserved under the render on the west side.
