St. Blasiuskirche Mägerkingen

Our St. Blasius Church in Mägerkingen was built as early as 1777. In June 2003, it was rededicated after extensive renovation work.

Presumably, a first church was already built in Mägerkingen between 900 and 1000 AD. In any case, in 1275 Mägerkingen is mentioned as an independent parish in the "Konstanzer Zehntbuch". After the Thirty Years' War, Mägerkingen recovered only slowly from the destruction, which also affected the medieval nave of the church. It was time for a new building under master builder Goetz, which was consecrated in 1777.

St. Blasius Church Mägerkingen

A Protestant island in a Catholic environment – since the Reformation, Mägerkingen has remained Protestant, unlike the surrounding villages. The spiritual center for believers has always been the St. Blasius Church, whose onion tower still shapes the village landscape today.

In 2003, extensive renovation work on the building was completed. On the outside, the original coloring from the Baroque period was chosen. Inside, "windows into the past" were installed, offering insights into the church's former stone painting.
