Church district Trier
The Protestant parish of Trier is the largest parish of the Evangelical Church in the Rhineland . It is a corporation under public law . It was spun off from the Trarbach parish in 1825 and was called Wolf parish until 1892 . But then the Wolfer parish returned to Trarbach, as it was only 4 km away from the seat of this church district.
The superintendent is based in Trier . According to Rhenish church law, the leadership of the church district lies with the district synod , the district synodal committee and the superintendent .
The approximately 55,900 Protestant people in the approximately 4,900 square kilometer area with a total of approximately 529,700 inhabitants make up around 10.6% of the population.
