St. Peter and Paul is a Roman Catholic church in the Alsatian city of Eguisheim. It is listed as a monument historique.
The first church in Eguisheim probably dates from the 11th century. It was followed in the 12th century by a Romanesque basilica with three naves and a tower. In the course of the 18th century, however, this church became too small for the rapidly growing population and also dilapidated. In July 1787, parts of the church collapsed during a service. The reconstruction was carried out by the engineers Messier and Gouget. They decided in 1807 to largely demolish the old nave and preserve only the tower and a few parts of the old church. In 1809 the new nave on the north side of the tower was completed. The furnishings were supplemented in the course of the 19th century.
