Église de la Sainte-Trinité

Église de la Sainte-Trinité, Renaissance Revival church in 9th arrondissement, France.

The Église de la Sainte-Trinité is a church built in Renaissance Revival style that stretches 90 meters long with a 65-meter bell tower rising prominently above the neighborhood. The exterior displays intricate sculptures and decorative details across its full facade, showcasing the architectural ambition of its era.

The church was built between 1861 and 1867 under Napoleon III as part of his larger vision to transform Paris into a modern city. Architect Théodore Ballu directed the construction, making it a product of the era's ambitious urban planning.

The church serves as a center for musical performances, with its grand organ having attracted accomplished musicians over the generations. Concerts and religious services here continue to draw people who appreciate the sound and artistic heritage the space offers.

The church sits on rue de la Trinité near place d'Estienne d'Orves and can be easily reached from Trinité metro station. The spacious interior allows visitors to move around freely and experience the acoustics that make it popular for concerts and services.

During the Franco-Prussian War from 1870 to 1871, the church was converted into a hospital to care for the wounded. Its large rooms and heating system made it practical for medical use during this difficult period.
