Church of Our Saviour, Protestant church building in Kallstadt, Germany

The Church of Our Saviour stands on the raised Kirchberg above the Deutsche Weinstraße in central Kallstadt. Its square Gothic choir, dated to the late 13th century, has buttresses with decorated gables and a tower rising above it, topped by a slate baroque lantern. The yellow sandstone is largely unplastered. A baroque nave with a rounded-arch portal marked "1772" adjoins it to the west.

The core of the lower storey, the former St. Alban chapel, dates to the late 13th century; in the 15th century it was rebuilt with the tower rising from the choir. In 1502 Bishop Johann III von Dalberg made Kallstadt its own parish, separate from Pfeffingen. The nave was demolished in 1772 and replaced by a Baroque hall running north-south, after which the church took the name St. Salvator.

The church was originally dedicated to St Alban and became an independent parish on 11 January 1502, when Bishop Johann III von Dalberg separated it from Pfeffingen at the request of parishioners who found the winter journey there burdensome. As a reminder of that dependency, the Kallstadt pastor was to lead a yearly procession to Pfeffingen with a High Mass and a donated candle, and from 1505 the parish paid Pfeffingen's pastor 9 guilders a year.

The church stands on the raised Kirchberg above the Deutsche Weinstraße, reached from the lower road past a retaining wall. The baroque portal with the carved door and the date 1772 faces south. The Gothic choir with the tower now forms a side chapel entered from the nave.

The tower's ground floor, the old Gothic choir, dates to the late 13th century and is likely the original St. Alban chapel; the tower grew out of it in the 15th century. In the south wall outside is the 17th-century epitaph of Schultheiß Hans Lorenz Schüller, carved with three bells he donated around 1668.
