Sight 6: Stadtkirche (Pankratiuskirche)

Show sight on map

The Pankratius Church in the Heilbronn district of Böckingen is a Protestant parish church, the oldest parts of which date back to the 13th century. The church was supplemented by a stair tower in 1610 and received its present appearance through a comprehensive expansion under Heinrich Dolmetsch around 1900. On the northern side of the Pankratius Church is the Old Böckingen Cemetery, which was replaced by a new cemetery on Heidelberger Straße in 1905, not least because of the operating noise of the Heilbronn marshalling yard.
