Ehingen Market Square

Highlight • Settlement

The market square is located in the upper town of Ehingen, lined with government buildings and shops. Weekly markets, annual markets, flea markets, and Christmas markets take place here. The charming, lively town center invites you to stroll and linger, with an exceptionally high number of small, locally owned shops. The town hall stands on the south side of the market square. The historic market square proved to be an excellent location for open-air concerts in the summer of 2024. Status Quo and the Spider Murphy Gang performed there. Sine Gotthard, Krokus, and Bonfire are planned for 2025. In the summer, this central meeting place in the heart of town also features the open-air market square cinema.

Herz-Jesu Church (Konviktskirche) Ehingen

Highlight • Religious Site

One of the three Catholic churches in the town center of Ehingen is the Konviktskirche (also known as the Sacred Heart Church). In 1686, the Benedictine Zwiefalten Monastery and the town of Ehingen agreed to establish a grammar school. It was stipulated that the monastery would provide three professors, and the town would provide the premises. A large college building was built between 1698 and 1709 based on designs by the Vorarlberg architect Franz Beer. In 1719, the associated Baroque college church, also designed by Beer, was completed and consecrated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. This made it one of the first Sacred Heart churches in Germany and worldwide. Like other ecclesiastical institutions, the college church fell victim to secularization in 1802. The building was used as a "fruit hall," i.e., for storing food. At the request of the Gymnasium to use the church for the Gymnasium service, the building was handed over to its intended purpose as a "Konviktskirche" on May 1, 1841, after a makeshift restoration.

Municipal Museum in the Former Heilig-Geist Hospital

Highlight • Historical Site

The Holy Spirit Hospital was founded around 1340 through donations and gifts from Ehingen citizens. In the 16th century, farm buildings and the so-called New House stood here, grouped around a courtyard. The farm buildings no longer exist. The New House served various purposes until 1976, most recently housing apartments. The building was extensively renovated between 1977 and 1984. The municipal museum opened here in 1985.
