History
The church of Holy Trinity the Less was first mentioned in 1258, but was destroyed in the 1666 Great Fire of London. The site of the church was purchased by Jacob Jacobsen, master of the Hanseatic merchants whose trading centre, the Steelyard, was nearby. He constructed a church for German Lutheran services. The church was rebuilt in 1773 but was demolished in 1867 as part of the construction of Queen Victoria Street.
