St. Trinitatis Church

The St. Trinitatis Church in Wolfenbüttel is one of the most important churches in the Baroque style in Germany.
Where the church stands today, there used to be the Imperial Gate, built by Cort Menge between 1570 and 1578. With a floor area of 34 × 26 meters, it was a large building with two floors. After the Thirty Years' War, the Imperial Gate had become militarily useless, so the execution hall on the upper floor was used as a place of worship from 1655 onwards - as a temporary solution and replacement for a half-timbered church built between 1588 and 1589 and demolished in 1655 in the course of the expansion of the city fortifications. The prayer room offered 350 seats for the service, the ground floor was still used by the garrison.
