Holy Trinity Church in Gdańsk

The St. Trinity Church , St. Anne's Church and the choir (the former monk's church ) in the suburb of Danzig together with the former Franciscan monastery form a building complex built by the Franciscans in the 15th century.

 

In 1422, the Gdańsk Council granted the Franciscans a site in the Danzig suburb of 26 rods long and 20 rods wide (approx. 9600 m² / 1 rod = 4.3 m) to build the monastery . The site remained in the possession of the city, and the construction of the buildings was subject to the approval of the council. Shortly after the construction of the monastery began around 1423, a small monk's church was built adjacent to the monastery building, which the brothers could enter via the cloister of the monastery. ... In the same year, 1481, construction began on the three-aisled St. Trinity Church, which was added to the west side of the choir. The vaults of the ships of equal height rest on five opposite pillars. It is connected to the choir via the central nave.
