Pfarrkirche St. Johannes Baptist, Catholic parish church in Baindt, Germany

Pfarrkirche St. Johannes Baptist is a three-nave basilica built from 1241 to 1275, with a rectangular choir closing the east end. A six-sided roof turret with a bell frame and onion dome rises from the west end of the central nave's saddle roof. Inside, Franz Martin Kuen painted the ceiling in 1764, and the high altar is a stucco-marble design by Johann Georg Dirr from 1763.

St. Johannes Baptist was built from 1241 to 1275 as the monastery church of the Cistercian nuns of Baindt Abbey. After the abbey's dissolution, it became the parish church of Baindt. The building is listed as a monument by the Baden-Württemberg State Office for Monument Preservation and belongs to the Diocese of Rottenburg-Stuttgart.

The high altar, designed in 1763 by Johann Georg Dirr, is made of stucco marble. Its altarpiece by Eustachius Gabriel showed the Coronation of Mary until it was removed in 1961. The organ heard today was built by Eduard Wiedenmann in 2019.

The church is the parish church of Baindt in the Diocese of Rottenburg-Stuttgart. Visitors enter through the west side beneath the hexagonal roof turret; the rectangular choir lies to the east. The organ built by Eduard Wiedenmann in 2019 stands in the gallery and is played at services.

The high altar retable showing the Coronation of Mary, painted by Eustachius Gabriel, was removed in 1961 so the early Gothic stained glass behind it could be seen. The stucco marble altar itself, designed by Johann Georg Dirr in 1763, stayed in place.
