Sulzkirchen was an original parish of the diocese of Eichstätt, which had been incorporated into the Plankstetten monastery since 1129 (according to Buchner since 1138).[19] Bishop Gundekar II consecrated a church here in the second half of the 11th century. In 1566 the Lutheran faith was introduced into Sulzkirchen among the Wolfsteiners.[21] In 1580 Forchheim was separated from the Lutheran mother parish of Sulzkirchen and made a Calvinist parish (1625 Counter-Reformation, 1670 Catholic parish).[22]
Today's church was built in 1735 under the last Wolfsteiner. To the east of the hall building on a rectangular floor plan with double galleries there is a church tower with an octagon and dome. The flat barrel is decorated with stucco by Gerolamo Andrioli and frescoes. In the east there is a pulpit altar; Opposite him is the stately gallery with the coats of arms of Wolfstein and Hohenlohe-Langenburg. The gate tower of the formerly fortified cemetery no longer exists; the entrance gate from the 16th/17th century. Century cantilevers on seven consoles.[23]
When Catholics in the Kingdom of Bavaria settled in Sulzkirchen again, they were assigned to the Catholic parish of Sulzbürg in 1814 by the General Commissariat of the Upper Danube District. In 1875 twelve Catholics lived here, in 1900 three and in 1937 16, who were pastored by the Sulzburger branch in Forchheim
