Trinitatiskirche, Renaissance church in Gera, Germany

The Trinitatiskirche stands at the intersection of Heinrichstrasse and Talstrasse, featuring a prominent east-side tower constructed in 1899 and Renaissance architectural elements.

Simon Reisig constructed the church between 1609 and 1611 as a cemetery chapel, which later gained status as a parish church in 1886 for southern Gera districts.

The interior contains decorated beam ceilings with Old Testament scenes and houses a sandstone epitaph for Chancellor Johann von Freiesleben on the eastern choir wall.

The church building received external maintenance work in 1986 and maintains regular religious services at Talstrasse 2 in central Gera.

The church bell, cast in 1518, survived World War II despite being designated for melting, and returned to Gera in 1969 after discovery in Hamburg.
