From a simple Marienkapelle to a grand Baroque church, the Evang. Kirche Rotenberg has witnessed centuries of change. Here, nestled amongst the vineyards of Stuttgart, stands the Evang. Kirche Rotenberg. Its story begins around 1495, with the construction of a small Marienkapelle. The small chapel served the community for a time. As Rotenberg grew, so did its spiritual needs. The original chapel became too small. The community decided to build a proper church. The construction of the Evang. Kirche Rotenberg began in 1754. It was completed in 1756. The cost? A hefty 3544 Gulden. The result was a typical Protestant Predigtkirche, designed for sermons. The lower section of the tower offers a glimpse into the past, a last vestige of Gothic architecture in the village. The onion-domed tower you see today was added in 1754. The Evang. Kirche Rotenberg isn’t just a church; it’s a testament to the enduring faith of the Rotenberg community. In 2002, renovations revealed hidden paintings and colors, adding another layer to the church’s rich history. Today, the Evang. Kirche Rotenberg continues to serve a community of around 450 members, a beacon of faith amongst the vines.
