Konstantin-Basilika (Evangelische Kirche zum Erlöser)- Evangelische Kirchengemeinde Trier

The Basilica of constantine was originally built around 310, and now is now an evangelical church. The outside is amazing the inside is sparse but the acoustics of the organ are breathtaking. Free to enter its well worth a visit.

An impressive palace, later converted into a Protestant church. Visitors feel awe just to the thought that they sit on the same spot that once Constantine the Great once stood.

Cool remains from the Roman Empire. Apparently the largest room in the world still preserved from that period. Beautiful garden outside as well.

Historically.significant, astonishingly large space, once a greeting/meeting hall for Emperor Constantine I believe? Damaged by bombing in the war and rebuilt. Its an amazing space with an architectural pipe organ which I would have loved to hear played.

This church was underwhelming. Not much to see, very basic and bare, but some people might enjoy this.

Not visited inside. Just saw from outside and went in the Palace Garden behind it. Across the road there starts market road with every kind of Shops and whole area is then only for walking and wandering.

Free to enter on Sunday. Top best place I’ve visited in Germany

A huge, imposing and impressive building, that was built as a basilica (sort of an administrative building) in early 4th century and later converted to a church. The building contains the largest remaining hall from Roman times in the world - it is over 65 meters long, 25 meters wide and 30 meters high - which makes you feel really small. Definitely worth a visit!

Interesting building and history. Go inside and depending on how many people or how you feel, clap your hands. The sound is amazing. It's a short walk from the cathedral. Definitely worth checking out and taking pictures around the garden area.

Built in AD 310, the Constantine Basilica was commissioned by Constantine the Great as part of a palace complex. The Trier Augusta Treverorum, as it was called at the time, was the capital of Rome's Western Empire and the home of Constantine the Great. The Emperor Constantine ruled the Roman Emperor during the Period between (AD 306-337). It was in the 19th century under Frederick William IV that the Basilica of Constantine was restored to it's original Roman State. Since that time the basilica has undergone expansion, rebuilding after the bombings in 1944 and refurbishing up until the present. It is free to enter the basilica which has a total length of 67 meters, 26 meters wide and 33 meters tall. The interior is plain brick as the restoration after the 1944 bombings did not replace the interior wall embellishments. Despite this fact it is still intellectually satisfying to witness a Roman Basilica circa (AD 310) and that is why it has become a UNESCO World Heritage site. There is a small plastering on the exterior which demonstrates how the exterior once appeared.

Eine ursprünglich romanische Kirche, die mehrfach beschädigt/abgerissen und wieder aufgebaut: das heutige Gebäude ist zum Teil ein Gebäude der Nachkriegszeit. Die heutige "Evangelische Kirche zum Erlöser" erhält den Kern der romanischen Architektur und präsentiert sich als ein einzelner großer Kirchenraum, typisch protestantisch im Innern eher schlicht gestaltet. Die neue Orgel wurde erst 2014 eingebaut. Die Bezeichnung Basilika ist aus heutiger Sicht unpassend, da sie nicht dem Bautyp einer Basilika, sondern dem einer Saalkirche entspricht, und es sich auch nicht um eine katholische Kirche handelt. Einer der wenigen Blickfänge im Innern sind die Büsten von Christus und der Jünger, die die Evangelien "geschrieben" haben. Beeindruckend ist auch die durchgehende Kassettendecke.
