Facts and practical information

The Pankratiuskirche in the Heilbronn district of Böckingen is a Protestant parish church whose oldest parts date back to the 13th century. A stair tower was added to the church in 1610, and it received its current form through an extensive expansion under Heinrich Dolmetsch around 1900. On the northern side of the Pankratiuskirche is the Old Böckingen Cemetery, which was replaced by a new cemetery on Heidelberger Straße in 1905, not least because of the operational noise of the Heilbronn marshalling yard.
