Hospitalkirche Stuttgart

The Hospitalkirche is one of Stuttgart's four late medieval churches and was built from 1471 by Aberlin Jörg. The church was later connected to the first and only monastery in Stuttgart, a Dominican monastery. After the Reformation in 1534, the monastery complex became the "Municipal Citizens' Hospital" - hence the name "Hospital Church". When it was rebuilt after severe destruction during the Second World War, the former cloister was recreated by the block construction and the interior garden.

The entire area of the Hospitalkirche is laid out in a chessboard pattern, a typical urban layout for the Renaissance period. The Stuttgart Synagogue is located almost directly next to the Hospitalkirche.
