Dreifaltigkeitskirche, church
The Dreifaltigkeitskirche is a church building in Vienna's Favoriten district, constructed between 1913 and 1914 in a simple rectangular design. The stone and brick structure features a tall steeple, traditional wooden interior pews, and a plain but clean interior that was simplified during renovations in the 1950s.
The church was built from 1913 to 1914 and originally dedicated to Saint Philomena, before being rededicated to the Holy Trinity in 1962. This change of name reflects a shift in its religious focus and its growing role as a community center in the Favoriten district.
The church takes its name from the Holy Trinity and serves as a gathering place for the local community's worship and spiritual life. This connection to the neighborhood's faith traditions makes it a meaningful center for residents who have gathered here for celebrations and daily prayer.
The church is easily accessible near Waldmüllerpark and is within walking distance of public transportation in the neighborhood. Visitors can easily include it in a stroll through the district, and should note that regular services are held on Sunday mornings.
The church interior features a striking mosaic created by artist Ernst Bauernfeind in 1959 depicting the throne of grace, a symbol of divine mercy. The baptismal font, crafted from Adneter marble in an octagonal shape, demonstrates the careful craftsmanship of earlier generations.
