The construction of the church, financed by indulgences, began at Easter in 1477. During the great city fire in 1634, almost the entire city was destroyed, including a large part of the church. The nave and church tower burned down; only the choir vaults survived. The rebuilding of the church lasted until 1660, about twenty-five years.
The previous buildings were demolished before the respective new buildings: The Franconian wooden church was built in the 12th/13th. Century replaced by a stone building in the Hohenstaufen fortified church style.

The late-Gothic Schorndorf town church rises in the center of the city, west of the well-known historic marketplace, and forms a dominant eye-catcher with its sixty-six-foot tower. In the old town it appears as an important reference point and is one of the most important sights of the city.
