St. Maria-Himmelfahrt-Kirche, Baroque-style Catholic church in Feuerbach, Stuttgart, Germany

St. Maria Himmelfahrt is a Catholic church built from 1990 to 1995 by architect Bernhard Haass in a modern skeleton-frame construction with baroque styling. Its pale yellow facade is framed by white pilasters; a tall tower on the left carries a blue clock face with black Roman numerals and a gold hand, and above a cornice a narrower belfry with tall arched windows rises to a dark pointed roof. The lower gabled wing on the right has a rounded window, a niche with a figure, a second blue clock face and a cross-topped gable. Inside, a central nave with light stone tiles and a red carpet strip leads between dark wooden pews to three tall dark wooden altarpieces with painted panels and gold accents.

In the 1970s a small group of traditionalist Catholics formed in Stuttgart; in 1981 the Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X established the St. Athanasius priory here. The church was built on a combined plot that had held houses and a factory. The foundation stone was laid in 1990, the exterior was finished and the first Mass celebrated in 1993, interior painting and stucco work continued until 1994, and the church was consecrated on 13 April 1997.

The church is the seat of the German district of the Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X, which has run the Priory of St. Athanasius here since 1981; five priests and two brothers serve 550–600 faithful. The side altars were completed on 15 August 2010 by the Augsburg painter Hermengil Peiker. The mechanical organ by Mühleisen, built in 1995 with 17 stops, gained an 18th stop in 2023.

The church can be accessed from Tübinger Straße 36 and visitors can call +49 711 600111 for more information. Regular services take place on Saturdays, so it is advisable to check ahead whether visits are possible during these times.

The church is the largest of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X in Germany, and since 1984 the fraternity's German district has had its seat at the adjoining Priory of St. Athanasius. Five priests and two brothers serve roughly 550 to 600 faithful there.
