Trinity Lutheran Church (Cleveland, Ohio)

Trinity Lutheran Church was founded in 1853 when a few members of Zion Lutheran Church in Cleveland, Ohio, decided to start a new congregation. Reverend J. C. Lindemann was the first pastor at Trinity. The current building used for worship was built in 1873 at the corner of Lorain Avenue and West 30th Street.[1] In 1956, the church became world-famous because of the Beckerath organ installed in that year. The organ was built in Hamburg, Germany, by Rudolf von Beckerath, a famous organ builder.[2]

Trinity is a member of the Lutheran Church–Missouri Synod.[3]
