Church of the Holy Trinity ( Lithuanian: Švč. Trejybės bažnyčia) is a Roman Catholic church in Trinapolis , one of the parts of Lithuania's capital Vilnius. [1] The church was built in 1715–1721 and consecrated in 1722. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] However, its towers were completed only in 1772. [2]
The monastery closed in 1832 and in 1846 was given to the newly-established (1839) Russian Orthodox Diocese of Lithuania. It was returned to the Catholic Church after World War I.
Near the church there is a former Trinitarians monastery complex, who were invited to the area by Konstanty Kazimierz Brzostowski in 1700. [1] [3] Since then the area was called after the Trinitarians. [1]
