Salem Minster (German: Salemer Münster) is the Roman Catholic parish church of the community of Salem, Baden-Württemberg and was the abbey church of the former imperial abbey of Salem. It was built in Gothic architecture from around 1285 to 1420 as a three-aisled columned basilica and is one of the most important High Gothic Cistercian buildings in the German-speaking world. The exterior of the church largely corresponds to the original design, while alterations to the interior have had a lasting effect on the sense of space within. The inventory includes furnishings from the late Gothic, Baroque, Rococo and Classicist periods. It is the third largest Gothic church in Baden-Württemberg after Ulm Minster and Freiburg Minster.
