St. Kilian, Architectural heritage monument in Bavaria, Germany

St. Kilian is the only church in Atzhausen, a village in the Kitzingen district of Lower Franconia. It is a plain mansard-roofed building resembling the town hall of nearby Wiesentheid, with three window axes on two levels, a round stair turret bearing the inscription "1748 I.M.D. Schultheis", and a six-sided lantern cupola as roof turret. Inside, a two-column high altar with Franconian vine-leaf ornament stands beneath a flat ceiling with an IHS stucco monogram.

Atzhausen was long served from Kleinlangheim; around 1530 Margrave Georg of Brandenburg-Ansbach-Kulmbach introduced the Reformation, making the village Lutheran. On 26 June 1680 it was reassigned to Wiesentheid, where Johann Otto von Dernbach pushed the Counter-Reformation. A building of 1748 held a prayer room and school; it was converted into a chapel from 1778 and consecrated in 1785 by pastor Paul Anton Hiereth. In 1871 it was placed under Kilian, Kolonat and Totnan, and since 1950 it has belonged to the parish of Stadtschwarzach.

The church is a Filialkirche, a branch church of the parish of Stadtschwarzach since 15 November 1950, not an independent parish. Its patronal feast is that of St Kilian, and the 1950 bell cast by the Czudnochowsky foundry in Erding bears the inscription "Gewidmet dem Kirchenpatron St. Kilian. Atzhausen 1950".

St. Kilian stands on Düllstadter Straße in the middle of Atzhausen, a village in the Kitzingen district of Lower Franconia. The church is a branch church of the Stadtschwarzach parish, so access and any guided visits are arranged through that parish. The round stair turret on the exterior can be seen from the street at any time.

The church began in 1748 as a two-storey building combining a ground-floor prayer room with a schoolroom and teacher's dwelling upstairs; the teacher's quarters were only moved out in the early 19th century. A round stair tower on the facade, inscribed "1748 I.M.D. Schultheis", still marks the former teacher's entrance.
