Schlosskirche Haigerloch, Parish church on rocky outcrop, Haigerloch, Germany

The Schlosskirche Haigerloch stands prominently on an elevated position above the Eyachtal Valley, featuring Renaissance architecture with baroque modifications.

Prince Christoph and Princess Katharina of Hohenzollern commissioned the construction of this church around 1600 to establish a burial site for their family line.

The church interior contains a Renaissance high altar from 1609 with more than 60 wooden sculptures, representing exceptional craftsmanship from the Hohenzollern period.

The church functions as the main parish church of Haigerloch and welcomes visitors through its regular opening hours and scheduled religious services.

The rock formation beneath the church housed a nuclear fission laboratory during World War II, which has been transformed into the Atomic Cellar Museum.
