Salvatorkirche, Catholic church in Aalen, Germany
The Salvatorkirche is a Catholic church in Aalen featuring a distinctive onion dome above its entrance. Six Doric columns support the structure while a broad ceremonial stairway provides access to the main doorway.
This church was built during the postwar years as part of the region's reconstruction. Its four bells were cast in 1950 at the Bachert foundry in Heilbronn, each with different weights and tones.
Built after the Second World War, this church reflects the community's rebirth. Today visitors can see how local people gather here regularly for services and cultural events.
The church is located at Bohlstrasse 3 with parking available nearby. Access to the building is straightforward through the main entrance stairway.
A Chinese bishop named Vitus Chang consecrated the central cross on November 1, 1959, dedicating it to persecuted Christians in China. This unusual dedication connects the building to a worldwide church concern.
