Dreieinigkeitskirche

Dreieinigkeitskirche stands in Buxach, Memmingen, on a hill above the Buxach valley. Whitewashed walls give the interior a restrained appearance. Built between 1708 and 1710 under city architect Wilhelm Knoll, it became the first new church of the reformed imperial city of Memmingen.

The four-bay nave leads to a choir with a window axis and three-eighths closure, beside a bell tower. Limited stucco and eighteenth-century oil paintings shape the interior. Martin Luther appears among the paintings, while coats of arms recall Memmingen’s patrician families. An organ occupies the gallery, reachable only through an external entrance.

Separate bells mark the tower’s quarter-hour and hour strikes, with the hour bell cast by Johann Paulus Strobel in 1743. A church cemetery surrounds the building, divided between ecclesiastical and municipal sections. Inside, a memorial plaque commemorates soldiers who fell or disappeared during the Second World War.
