St. Trinitatis, Hamburg-Altona

St. Trinitatis is a baroque church in Altona featuring sandstone portals decorated with Danish royal monograms. The building stands prominently in the neighborhood with its classical architecture and substantial stone construction.

The church was built between 1742 and 1743 based on designs by architect Cay Dose, replacing an earlier structure from 1649. Its construction took place during the period of Danish rule in the region.

The church hosts regular concerts and musical performances by local choirs that draw people from the neighborhood and beyond. It serves as a gathering place where residents celebrate life events and mark important moments together.

The church is located in the Altstadt area and is easily accessible on foot. Regular services and community events take place throughout the year, so checking ahead for times is helpful when planning a visit.

The building suffered severe damage from air raids during World War II. An extensive restoration project spanning from 1954 to 1969 brought the church back to its present condition.
