Heiligste Dreifaltigkeit

Heiligste Dreifaltigkeit stands in Langwasser, Nuremberg, as a Catholic church designed by architect Alexander von Branca. This Catholic church was consecrated on 6 September 1964. Its minimalist architecture places liturgical elements at the centre of a space shaped for communal worship. A surrounding colonnade frames the church on every side.

Inside, the altar stands near the centre, reflecting Second Vatican Council ideas about participation in liturgy. An overhead skylight illuminates the altar area with natural light. The complex also contains a parish house, kindergarten, and senior centre. Two chapels add distinct spaces: one serves weekdays, while the other is for baptisms.

Set within a green zone, the church offers a tranquil setting amid Nuremberg’s urban landscape. The local Catholic community numbers around 3,100 members. Religious services, events, and social activities connect the church with everyday life in Langwasser.
