Wolfgang Church (Tullau)
The Wolfgang Church is a small late Gothic church in the hamlet of Tullau in the Rosengarten community in the Schwäbisch Hall district of Baden-Württemberg .
history
With the help of a foundation from Anna von Bachenstein, the church was built in 1437 as the chapel of “Our Lady”. The year 1476 is on the west gate . In 1701, St. Wolfgang is attested as the church patron .
Until 1683 Tullau belonged to the parish of Westheim . The dead were buried in Westheim until Tullau was given its own cemetery in 1835. Subsequently, Tullau belonged to the parishes of St. Michael and temporarily to St. Katharina in Hall . The Steinbach parish has been responsible for the parish in Tullau since 1958. In 1978 the Wolfgang Church became a Protestant parish church.
architecture
The small hall church has a steep gabled roof with a gabled riders from truss as belfry on the portal page to the road.

The late Gothic high altar from around 1510 is the carving of an unknown master. With the double doors open, the altar shows the carved figures of St. Wolfgang and St. Nicholas in the middle part . The side wings, each divided into two registers, represent the four evangelists with their attributes in relief-like plastic . A special feature should be noted with regard to the evangelist Luke , who is shown without the usual bull. The evangelist is shown here painting the Madonna.
The outer sides are painted with pictures of St. Wolfgang and St. Nicholas. The pictures of Saints Ulrich and Erasmus are on the fixed reserves . The predella shows Christ carrying the cross, the sprinkling of Christ as the Man of Sorrows between two holy deacons covered by canopies .
Mary Altar (1520)
A Marian altar from the chapel from 1520 was sold by the parish to the Württemberg State Museum in Stuttgart in 1884 (altar piece) and 1903 (altar shrine) . It shows figures of Mary with the child and two female saints carved and set in the shrine. All three are crowned. The child is carrying a suction bag in one hand. A saint is shown as a martyr with a severed arm. The coat of arms in the upper right corner of the shrine is divided from red and silver. The Annunciation is shown in the altarpiece . On the inside of the wings is painted: Visitation of the Virgin (visit of the pregnant Mary to the pregnant Elisabeth), the birth of Christ , circumcision of Christ , adoration of the kings . The outside of the side wings show Christ as the Man of Sorrows and Mary as the mother in pain .
It is possible that a predella still in the church today (inscription dated 1520) with the depiction of Mary with child and the fourteen helpers in need belongs to this altar.
Outside of the left side wing: Christ as the Man of Sorrows
