Church buildings

A chapel of St. Otmar and Maria was mentioned in Bartenbach in 1404. It was destroyed in the Thirty Years War. At the same place, today's church was built in 1651 as a choir-less hall church in the form of a transverse church and was used by the Protestant parish in the church district of Göppingen until a new community center was built in 1974 . This old Protestant village church was initially non-functional, but from 1983 it was used as the Holy Cross Church by the Armenian community of Baden-Württemberg and became their property with a contract dated December 18, 2018. The key handover from the Evangelical Church Community of Bartenbach to the Armenian Community of Baden-Württemberg took place on June 6, 2019 as part of an ecumenical prayer and in the presence of Bishop Serovpe Isakhanyan, Primate of the Armenian Church in Germany, Dr. hc Frank Otfried July, Regional Bishop of the Evangelical Church in Württemberg and Guido Till, Lord Mayor of the City of Göppingen. In November 2015, a cross stone ( Chatschkar ) was erected at the church portal and ceremoniously inaugurated.

In 1974, the Protestant parish built a new parish center , which is now used for worship and parish work. The church service room, which can be used in many ways, is furnished with bronze altar art by the Göppingen artist Hermann Schwahn (1974) and colored glazing (1980) by the Stuttgart artist Anna-Dorothea Kunz-Saile .
