Die dreischiffige neoromanische Hallenkirche (Bauzeit 1864-1868) ist die größte Kirche ihrer Art im Regierungsbezirk Chemnitz.

Imposant erhebt sich die stattliche Kirche mit ihrem 64,5 m hohen Turm über den Ort. Nach einem verheerenden Stadtbrand im Jahr 1862, der die alte Oswaldkirche dem Erdboden gleich machte, wurde die Eibenstocker Stadtkirche nach Plänen von Oskar Sommer von 1864 bis 1868 als dreischiffige neoromanische Hallenkirche neu errichtet. Sie ist die größte Kirche ihrer Art im Regierungsbezirk Chemnitz und eine der bedeutendsten in Sachsen. Aus der alten Kirche konnten mitten im Brand ein lebensgroßes, aus dem 16. Jahrhundert stammendes Kruzifix und die in Sachsen einmalige Darstellung des Heiligen Oswald, eine Holzskulptur aus der Zeit um 1520, gerettet werden. Bemerkenswert sind außerdem die historische Kreutzbach-Orgel, das Dreiergeläut im Turm von insgesamt 63 Zentnern sowie die mechanische Turmuhr aus der Carlsfelder Uhrenfabrik.
