Katharinenkirche stands at Katharinenplatz in Stuttgart, surrounded by tall buildings and shaped by nineteenth-century church architecture. Its understated setting draws your eye toward the rose window above the portal and leafy stone sculptures above the windows.

Anglicans laid the foundation stone for the English Church in 1864. The building became part of Stuttgart’s religious life through English-language services and an international congregation. Second World War destruction erased the church, but careful reconstruction brought it back by 1955. A support association founded in 2006 continues to accompany restoration and preservation work. The renovated interior and restored stonework reflect the efforts behind its recognition as a cultural monument.

The Old Catholic community uses the church, while St. Catherine’s Anglican Church connects more than 25 nationalities through worship and community activities. Children’s programmes, women’s groups, musical events, sacraments and pastoral care all find a place here. Above the portal, the rose window remains the clearest detail against Stuttgart’s surrounding façades.
