The Filialkirche Heiligste Dreifaltigkeit is a Roman Catholic church in the Breitstrasse village of Moritzreith in the municipality of Gföhl in Lower Austria.

The church, built in 1751 as a simple rectangular building with a semicircular apse and a square, half-retracted west tower with a slender pyramid roof, was expanded in the 19th century. The sacristy is in the north, a vestibule in the south. The single yoke interior has a groin vault. The stained glass from 1952 shows the 'Saint Anna Maria teaching reading' and Saint Leopold .

On the high altar with altarpiece and angel figures on the side stands the altarpiece ' Holy Kinship ', framed with rich rocailles , painted in 1752 by Martin Johann Schmidt . The side altar with the picture ' Sacred Heart of Jesus ' was built around 1840/50, the neo-Romanesque pulpit around 1900.

The organ was built by Franz Capek in 1899 . On the organ loft is a picture 'Raising Lazarus ' from the school of Leopold Mitterhofer (around 1820).
