Church of the Holy Trinity in Rakovník, church building in Rakovník II, Czech Republic

The Church of the Holy Trinity in Rakovník is a single-nave Renaissance building with Gothic elements, 22 m long and 7.5 m wide, ending in a three-sided presbytery. All windows have pointed arches with irregular tracery. Five sandstone buttresses flank each side and two support the end. The roof is hipped and tiled, topped by an octagonal sanctus turret with a finial. A hexagonal tower with a pyramidal roof stands at the northwest corner.

The cemetery was founded in 1575, and ten years later the Italian master Valentin began building the cemetery church, completed in 1588. In 1594 a lantern was placed on the roof ridge, and around 1600 the Italian builder Jan Cesar extended the church westward and inserted a gallery. A lightning strike on 24 June 1884 destroyed the altar, windows and pulpit, but the church was repaired within a year.

The church's main altar painting, made by Augustin Lhota in 1833 after an older model, shows the Holy Trinity among angels with St Bartholomew pointing toward Rakovník. The adjacent Chapel of St Roch, built in 1726 after a public collection by dean Jiří Jan Libertinus, is now used by the Orthodox Church.

The church sits on a cemetery in Rakovník II near the town's older streets and neighborhoods, making it accessible on foot. Visitors should understand that the graveyard and surrounding grounds are quiet spaces meant for reflection and respect.

A wooden bell tower stands next to the church, also dating from the late 1500s and housing three named bells. The largest bell is called Jesus and was cast in 1599, while the others honor Mary and Joseph, with their sounds still ringing on special occasions today.
