Holy-Trinity-Church, Gothic Revival church in Derendorf, Germany

The Holy Trinity Church is a church building in Gothic Revival style with a central tower and substantial stone walls. The structure displays characteristic pointed arches and vertical lines that draw the eye upward, while the layout follows the traditional form of nave and choir.

The parish was founded in 1691 by the canon brothers Sommers and Johann Bartholomäus von Weyer; their brick church of 1692–1693 stood on today's Münsterplatz. The present church was built in 1892–1893 to the first-prize design of Caspar Clemens Pickel, near the old building, which was demolished once it was finished. Destroyed in the Second World War, it was rebuilt in the late 1940s and early 1950s under pastor Ernst Kreuzberg.

The parish was founded in 1691 by the canons Gebrüder Sommers and Johann Bartholomäus von Weyer, making it the oldest still-existing parish outside Düsseldorf's former city walls. A bronze plaque at the restaurant "Rachen" marks the site of the first church on today's Münsterplatz. The parish choir under organist Heinz Koenen was held in high regard beyond Düsseldorf in the 1950s and 1960s.

The church can be entered through the main door on the western facade, which leads directly into the interior. Visitors should check in advance about opening times, as access may be limited during services or outside regular hours.

The 50-metre tower lost its original spire in the Second World War and is now topped by a large stone crown, with a gilded clock face below it. Six bells hang on two levels inside. The porch gives access to a Marian chapel on the right and a baptismal chapel on the left.
