Stadtkirche Waltershausen, Baroque church in Waltershausen, Germany.

The Stadtkirche Waltershausen features an elliptical floor plan with galleries that accommodates 1200 people in its gray-red sandstone structure.

The foundation stone of the current church was laid in 1719, replacing a Gothic hall church from 1326 while preserving the original tower from 1458.

The ceiling displays paintings by court painter Johann Heinrich Ritter, depicting allegorical figures and the Holy Trinity in traditional baroque style.

The Protestant parish church holds regular Sunday services at 10:00 AM during summer months, with the parish office located at Lutherstrasse 3.

The church houses the largest baroque organ in Thuringia, built between 1724 and 1726 by Tobias Gottfried Heinrich Trost from Altenburg.
