Namen-Jesu-Kirche, Parish church in Oberdischingen, Germany.

Namen-Jesu-Kirche is a Neoclassical central-plan church in Oberdischingen, nicknamed the Swabian Pantheon. Its north side has a Tuscan column portico with a pediment; the south side carries a Neo-Baroque bell tower with an onion dome. Inside, a hemispherical dome covers a rotunda with four pairs of Ionic columns set in a Greek cross.

A Gothic church dedicated to the Virgin Mary, built in Oberdischingen in 1448, stood on the site until it was demolished around 1820. The present church was funded by Count Franz Ludwig Schenk von Castell as part of his plan to turn the village into a residence; construction began in 1800, the interior was fitted out by Baurat Bühler in 1828–1832, and consecration followed in 1835. The bell tower was added in 1892/1893 by Oberamtsbaumeister Buck, with renovations in 1907–1912 and 1967/1968.

The church is called the "Swabian Pantheon" because its domed rotunda follows the model of the Pantheon in Rome. Its four bells hang in the neo-baroque tower: the oldest was cast in 1510 for the Gothic predecessor church, and three more were added in 1950. Stone reliefs carved in 1501 by Master Anton, showing the Crucifixion and scenes from the life of Jesus, came from the rood screen of Blaubeuren Abbey and stand behind the altar.

The church stands in an open grassy area in Oberdischingen, in the Alb-Donau-Kreis of Baden-Württemberg. The entrance portico with its four columns faces north, while the bell tower with the onion dome and clock is on the south side, so visitors arriving from the village approach the temple front first. The interior is a domed rotunda; the high altar stands in the south arm.

The four bells in the tower span four centuries: the oldest was cast in 1510 for the Gothic church that preceded the present building, while the other three were hung in 1950. Behind the altar are Gothic reliefs carved in 1501 by Master Anton, originally part of the rood screen of Blaubeuren Abbey.
