St. Konrad von Parzham

St. Konrad von Parzham, Catholic church in Ruhla, Germany.

St. Konrad von Parzham is a Catholic church in Ruhla, a town in Thuringia, built with a modern style from the 20th century. Inside, religious artworks and symbols are arranged following traditional patterns typical of churches in the region.

The first Roman Catholic service in Ruhla since the Reformation was held in 1929, when the town was still an outstation of the Eisenach parish. A plot for a new church was bought in 1936 because the old place of worship had become too small through migration. The church was consecrated on 29 March 1937 to Saint Conrad of Parzham, and a replica of his statue from Altötting was installed that September. In 1948 confirmation was administered in Ruhla for the first time since the Reformation, and in 1949 the first Corpus Christi procession took place.

The church is dedicated to Saint Conrad of Parzham, a Capuchin lay brother who worked as a porter in Altötting. In September 1937 a statue of him was installed, a copy of the one in the Altötting museum. In 1949 Ruhla held its first Corpus Christi procession since the Reformation.

Since 2005 Ruhla has belonged to the St. Elisabeth parish in Eisenach, so Mass times and any visits are arranged through that parish office rather than a local one. The church stands in Ruhla in the Wartburgkreis, Thuringia, and is a branch church of that Eisenach parish in the Meiningen deanery of the Erfurt diocese.

In September 1937 a statue of Saint Konrad was inaugurated in the church; it is a copy of the statue kept in the museum at Altötting, where Konrad worked as a porter in the Capuchin monastery. The original church in Ruhla stood above today's Protestant St. Trinitatis church around 1506.
