On the left (north) next to the central window of «god the father» in the choir: trinity window «god the son», designed by józef mehoffer (1918 - 1922), subsequently executed by kirsch & fleckner and inserted in 1926. The gloriously risen son ascends in radiant splendour to the waiting throne. His right hand with the stigmata raised in blessing, the left holds the flag of the risen one, which also serves as a loincloth. Prophets and patriarchs appear representing all the righteous who have risen from the dead. Above the empty stone tomb, two angels hold the golden chalice with the host in one hand and pass the other to each other. The armoured roman soldier lies on the ground in front of the tomb without understanding what happened to him. The throne is surrounded by seven burning candlesticks. Two personifications flank him: justice with the scales on the right, strength with the sword on the left. In the lower frieze the holy scripture appears centrally, assigned to it are the evangelists with the creatures assigned to them: lion, eagle, man and bull. The saviour hovers above the open grave.
