St. Johannes, Church building in Riekofen, Germany.

St. Johannes Baptist is a hall church in Riekofen whose core dates to the 14th century. It has an 18th-century nave, a recessed choir with a five-eighth close to the east, and a choir-flank tower on the choir's south wall. The tower's top storey, with pilasters on rounded corners, holds the clock and bells and is crowned by an onion dome with a lantern.

The church's core structure dates back to the 14th century and was later expanded with nave and tower additions. Major construction work took place in the 18th century, followed by the addition of a neo-Gothic chapel in 1869.

The parish church is dedicated to John the Baptist and belongs to the Diocese of Regensburg. Its ceiling painting in the nave shows the Coronation of Mary, and the high altar from the mid-17th century displays Mary between fluted pilasters.

St. Johannes Baptist stands in the centre of Riekofen, a village in the Upper Palatinate district of Regensburg. The church is a listed building (D-3-75-191-5); the neo-Gothic chapel of 1869 on the south-east corner now serves as the sacristy. Visitors should time their visit around services.

The top storey of the choir flank tower, with pilasters on its rounded corners, holds both the tower clock and the bell frame, and is crowned by an onion dome with a lantern. The 1869 neo-Gothic chapel on the south-east corner now serves as the sacristy.
