St. James (German: St. Jakob) is a Lutheran (originally Catholic) church in Rothenburg ob der Tauber, Germany, which serves as a church on the pilgrimage route to St. James Church in Santiago de Compostela, Spain. It has two towers.

The church was built between 1311 and 1484. Its east chancel was completed in 1322, nave built from 1373–1436, and west choir, which bridges the street, from 1453–1471. The church was consecrated in 1485 by the Bishop of Würzburg.

Its western gallery contains the famous Holy Blood altarpiece of the Würzburg wood carver Tilman Riemenschneider, carved 1500–1505. The altar includes scenes of the entry into Jerusalem (right wing), Lord's Supper (shrine) with Judas as central figure and the Mount of Olives (left wing).
