Dreifaltigkeitskirche, Gaibach

While he was working on the Residenz in Würzburg, Neumann was also engaged in various other projects such as the building of the Dreifaltigkeitskirche (Trinity Church) in the Schönborn village of Gaibach. The interior of the church consists of a nearly spherical oval shape that is set crossways and therefore also functions as a crossing. Three elliptical smaller spaces adjoin it on the east side forming a choir and transept.
