St. Matthäus, Roman Catholic parish church in Wurz, Püchersreuth, Upper Palatinate, Germany

St. Matthäus is a church building in the village of Püchersreuth in Bavaria and serves as a place of worship for the local community. It features thick stone walls, a tiled roof, and a tall tower that stands out in the village landscape and can be spotted from a distance.

The predecessor church collapsed in 1934, and the present hall church was built in its place. Its southwest tower survives from the earlier building: in 1683 it was raised by a storey of ashlar masonry housing the clock and bell frame, and topped with an onion dome crowned by a lantern. The parish belongs to the Diocese of Regensburg and the building is listed as monument D-3-74-150-28.

The church is dedicated to the Evangelist Matthew, and the parish belongs to the Diocese of Regensburg. On the gallery balustrade, thirteen figures are depicted, the twelve apostles with Paul or Matthias completing the group. The building is listed as a Bavarian monument under the number D-3-74-150-28.

St. Matthäus stands in Wurz, a hamlet of the municipality of Püchersreuth in the Upper Palatinate, and is reached on foot from the village. The church belongs to the Diocese of Regensburg and is listed as a Bavarian monument under the number D-3-74-150-28. The tower rises at the south-western corner of the nave, so the building is best seen from the south and west.

The tower's core survives from the predecessor church that collapsed in 1934; it was raised by one storey of ashlar masonry in 1683 to house the clock and bell frame, and is capped by an onion dome topped with a lantern. The nave itself is a 1934 hall church.
