The architectural and artistic rendering of the Holy Trinity Church is based on the symbolism of the triune God.
Upon entering the building, one is immediately struck by the four-part window symbolizing the four evangelists, whose writings are the gateway to knowing Jesus Christ. Doors in the space lead to the hall and rooms for everyday use, while opposite doors lead to the central sanctuary space.
The church nave itself resembles an ark, while the tower represents a figure bending towards the ark. The unconventional curvature of the tower, with its formal language, refers to Gothic Madonna statues, and the touch of the perimeter wall with the tower derives from holding one's child.
The building personifies the church community of the given place, but its form also refers to the dynamics of history that shake all of humanity and that were inscribed in the life struggle and legacy of Cardinal Josef Beran.
Church Tower
The point where the tower touches the perimeter wall is identical to a Madonna holding her child.
Light as a Symbol
The entering light is a natural symbol of the Holy Spirit, who fills the space of the sanctuary and all those present. The movement of sunlight will reach every corner throughout the day and illuminate them with its presence.
Spiral Path
Around the perimeter of the sanctuary, a barrier-free path rises in a spiral, just as human life develops in a spiral between earth and heaven. The path is lined with operational rooms intended for gatherings.
View of Heaven
The function of the vault truss, which in Gothic vaults refers to Christ and is decorated with his image, is taken over by a window that allows a view of the sky under all circumstances.
Windows in the wall, benches at the foot of the ark, and open space around the building complete another dimension – openness, freedom, and the free-spiritedness of the Holy Spirit.
