Dreieinigkeitskirche

The Dreieinigkeitskirche features a column-free hall layout with unobstructed views of the pulpit and altar, accommodating over 1000 people within its walls.

Built between 1627 and 1631, this church stands as the first Protestant church construction in Southern Germany, marking a significant shift in religious architecture.

The church cemetery became the final resting place for Swedish officials and exiled families who contributed financially to its construction during the Thirty Years' War.

The northern tower of Dreieinigkeitskirche contains a small history museum and provides views over the old town of Regensburg from its observation platform.

The barrel vault roof demonstrates advanced engineering, with the entire weight distributed solely onto the outer walls without internal support structures.
