Our church has a remarkable history, deeply intertwined with the life of Frank Jay Gould, the American philanthropist whose generosity helped establish Holy Trinity here in Maisons-Laffitte.
From its foundation stone laid in 1919 and its consecration in 1920, the church has stood as a symbol of friendship between France, Britain, and the United States. Over the decades, it has welcomed worshippers from across the world, served as a place of refuge during times of war, and grown into a vibrant community of faith and fellowship.
The story of Holy Trinity is not only about architecture and benefactors, but also about the people - past and present - who have shaped its life and mission.
To learn more about its fascinating history, we invite you to read René Jeannin-Naltet’s account of Frank Jay Gould and his legacy.
