Church of Holy Trinity, Roman Catholic church in Bohumilice, Czech Republic.

The Church of the Holy Trinity is a single-nave building with an east-facing presbytery, standing on a slope at the eastern edge of Bohumilice's core at about 590 m above sea level. Its west facade, remodeled in 1861–1862, has horizontal banding, two small corner turrets, a round window above the entrance and an arched frieze along the gable. A separate neo-Romanesque bell tower from 1862 stands beside it.

A Gothic or Romanesque-Gothic church probably built between 1240 and 1250, first documented in 1379. It was rebuilt around 1435, enlarged around 1600, and reconstructed in 1663 after a 1657 fire. A February 1815 blaze destroyed both towers and their bells; the church was restored in 1817–1818, then altered in 1861–1862 with a new west facade and a separate bell tower. After a five-year renovation it was reconsecrated on 25 October 2009 by Bishop Jiří Paďour.

The church was originally dedicated to St Martin; the dedication later shifted to St Martin and the Holy Trinity, then to the Holy Trinity and St Barbara, before the Holy Trinity alone prevailed. Pope Alexander VII granted plenary indulgences for pilgrimages on the Feast of the Holy Trinity in 1665, drawing processions from Vimperk, Vacov and Čestice. A local legend tells of a white dove carrying wood chips from the meadow Jiřice to the building site, which is why the dove appears in the municipal coat of arms granted in 2020.

The church stands on a slope at the eastern edge of the village core, about 590 m above sea level, and is reached on foot from the centre. The whole complex is a protected cultural monument, so the walled cemetery with its three entrances, the 1862 bell tower, the mortuary and the Holoubek tomb are visited on the same walk.

A legend explains the church's site: carpenters were building on the meadow Jiřice when a white dove carried wood chips to the present spot, taken as a sign of the Holy Spirit. A spring is said to lie beneath the presbytery, and in 2020 the dove entered the village coat of arms.
