Dreifaltigkeitskirche, Catholic parish church in Frankenthal, Germany.
Dreifaltigkeitskirche is a Catholic parish church in Frankenthal built in late Baroque style with a hall structure and prominent bell tower. The interior impresses with carefully restored frescoes from the early 1700s and a recently renovated organ featuring 40 registers across three manuals and pedal.
Construction began in 1709 but faced financial difficulties that delayed its completion until 1748. Support from the Prince-Electors Carl Philipp and Carl Theodor proved essential in realizing this ambitious architectural project.
The church is dedicated to the Holy Trinity and displays the craftsmanship of the Baroque period throughout its interior spaces. Visitors can observe restored frescoes from the early 1700s and hear the three bells that have marked religious services since 1949.
The church is spacious and easy to enter, with its architecture inviting visitors to spend time exploring the interior. Plan your visit during regular opening hours and note that services may limit public access at certain times.
The building was destroyed in 1943, but its story did not end with wartime damage. After reconstruction in 1949, altars relocated from the Spitalkirche in Baden-Baden were installed, bringing new artistic elements to the restored space.
