In the place of the Evangelical Lutheran City Church, there was already a church in 1374, which was consecrated to St. Vitus and burned down several times in the course of history and was rebuilt. Today's church was built in neo-Gothic style between 1869 and 1871 after the last big city fire. Very nice and worth seeing church. naila-evangelisch.de/stadtkirche-naila

In 1374, a church dedicated to St. Veit (who died as a martyr in 278 AD under Emperor Domitian) stood on the site of the town church. It burned down and was rebuilt several times in the course of history.

The current church was built in the neo-Gothic style between 1869 and 1871 after the last major town fire. The crucifix and baptismal font were saved from the old church. They can be seen today next to the main portal.

In 1935/36, the interior of the town church was completely redesigned:
