Dreifaltigkeit Adliswil

Dreifaltigkeit Adliswil is a Catholic church in Adliswil with a three-aisled interior layout and a prominent bell tower positioned northwest at Rellstenstrasse. The building displays clear neo-Gothic architectural forms with stone construction and regular window patterns along its walls.

The church was built in 1903 by architect August Hardegger after local Catholics received approval in 1894 to establish their own parish separate from Langnau. This separation marked an important moment for Catholic community life in the Adliswil region.

The church takes its name from the Holy Trinity, a central concept in Catholic theology reflected throughout its interior design. Visitors can see wooden ceilings, wall paintings, and a high altar that express this religious theme through neo-Gothic forms.

The church is accessible during regular worship services and special religious occasions, located within walking distance of Adliswil station and local transit stops. Visitors should remember that this is an active place of worship, so respectful conduct and appropriate dress are expected when entering.

The bell tower contains five bronze bells installed in 1988 that replaced the original three from 1928, each bearing distinct inscriptions and designs. These replacement bells continue to define the sonic character of worship and the acoustic identity of the congregation today.
