St. Georg is a church in northern Stuttgart, built from clinker brick between 1929 and 1930. Architect Hugo Schlösser shaped it in the New Objectivity style, combining the main church with parish rooms and a rectory. Its tower stands offset towards the street, with ornamental cornices and a statue of the patron saint by Karl Rieber.

Inside, the three-nave basilica keeps its side aisles as passage zones, while a large choir mosaic shows Christ as the world redeemer. Josef Eberz created the mosaic, and fourteen silkscreen prints by Anton Stankowski add another artistic layer. War damage led to reconstruction with a sloping tile roof, replacing the original flat copper covering. A 2010 renovation introduced a new altar and baptismal font by Rolf Bodenseh, while youth camps, senior gatherings and other activities keep the church connected to Stuttgart’s diverse communities.

Look up towards the street-facing tower, where the saint’s statue sits above the brickwork and ornamental cornices.
