Dreifaltigkeitskirche, Catholic parish church in Sandhausen, Germany
Description
The Dreifaltigkeitskirche is a church building in Sandhausen with a hexagonal floor plan and modern concrete roof, marked by handmade brick interior walls. The spaces feel generous and open due to their height and construction.
History
The building was completed in 1968 and replaced an older church that no longer met the needs of the growing Catholic community. Architect Manfred Schmitt-Fiebig designed it in the modern style of the postwar period.
Culture
The interior features geometric shapes that form a triangle above the altar and shape how the space feels. These modern design elements create a particular impression when you enter the church.
Practical
The church sits on the eastern edge of Sandhausen and is easy to reach on foot or by car. Regular services take place, and visitors should check the posted times or ask ahead.
Did you know?
The church displays an unusual version of the Stations of the Cross that does not follow the traditional sequence but instead shows specific passion scenes. This personal interpretation makes the art journey through the church something distinctive.
