St. Vitus church (Gärtringen)
The Protestant St. Vitus church in Gärtringen is considered one of the best-preserved late Gothic village churches in Württemberg. The oldest surviving component is the tower, which was built between 1455 and 1460. With its height of 38.5 meters, which can be attributed to its former use as a fortified and watchtower, it still represents the dominant landmark of the village. The year 1496, when the choir was completed, is considered the year of construction of the pilaster church.The continuously vaulted village church has unusually rich late Gothic vault paintings and is classified as a monument of special importance. The interior of the church, which is in need of renovation, was extensively restored from May 2009 to September 2010.
