Heilige Familie, Catholic church in Eichstätt, Germany

Heilige Familie is a Catholic parish church in eastern Eichstätt, built from 1963 to 1965 in brick and concrete to plans by Karljosef Schattner. Its flat-roofed exterior has reddish-brown brick above grey concrete, with a vine covering part of the front. Inside, a tall hall with pale walls and a grey concrete block holds light wooden pews with green cushions, an organ with silver pipes, and an altar island of Jura marble.

Built between 1963 and 1965, the church was designed by architect Karljosef Schattner. This period marked when contemporary design approaches began reshaping religious buildings.

The church is dedicated to the Holy Family, a patronage given by Bishop Alois Brems at its consecration. The altar island is made of Jura marble, while the tabernacle and the altar and apostle candelabra are cast in bronze after designs by Blasius Gerg. The Stations of the Cross were made by the local artist and professor Franz Rindfleisch.

The church has been closed since November 2023 because of damage to the roof structure, so the interior cannot be visited. The freestanding bell tower stands at the corner of a busy street intersection; from street level a staircase leads down to the lower courtyard, which blocks the traffic noise. The parish belongs to the Pfarrverband of Eichstätt's city church.

The church has been closed since November 2023 because of damage to the roof structure, so the 1983 two-manual organ by Andreas Ott of Bensheim with 21 registers cannot currently be heard. Schattner's plans and a model are kept at the Architecture Museum of the Technical University of Munich.
