Stadtkirche Mylau, Protestant church in Reichenbach im Vogtland, Germany

The Stadtkirche Mylau is a red-brick Neo-Gothic hall church built 1887–90 on a cross-shaped plan, ending in a five-sided choir flanked by a sacristy and stair tower. Its slender square tower with a pointed spire is set slightly into the nave and flanked by two round stair towers. Above the portal stand 1894 figures of the Evangelists by Heinrich Weinhold.

This church was built between 1887 and 1890, replacing an earlier structure that had stood there since the 13th century. Architects Gotthilf Ludwig Möckel and Julius Zeißig designed the new building in the Neo-Gothic style.

The choir windows by Schneider and Schmölz of Cologne, installed in 1890, show the Nativity, the Crucifixion and the Ascension, not Christmas, Easter and Pentecost. Rosettes beside them carry portraits of Luther and Melanchthon; the transept rosettes show the apostles Peter and Paul, and the aisle windows the evangelist symbols.

The church stands in the Mylau district of Reichenbach im Vogtland, on a site occupied by a predecessor building since the 13th century. The red brick exterior and the tower set slightly into the nave are easiest to see from outside before or after services. Interior restorations in 1933 and 1986–89 left the neo-Gothic furnishings and the painted vault decoration by Max Schmidt of Hamburg in place.

The organ was consecrated on 2 December 1731 and kept about two thirds of its original 1731 pipes. When the church was rebuilt in 1887, Carl Eduard Schubert gave it a Neo-Gothic case, and some pipes were remade with extra length for the new front. In 1989 the Jehmlich brothers rebuilt the Quintadena 8′ and Sifflöte 1′, restoring the 1896 stoplist.
