According to an inscription above the entrance to the old sacristy, the choir and tower were built in 1474. The following legend is connected to its construction: "The people who made the decision could not agree on the building site. Some were in favor of the place where it stands today, but most were in favor of a different place. The building materials were also brought to these places. The next morning, however, it was in its current place. The opponents believed that it had been secretly dragged there during the night and brought it back. The following morning, to their annoyance, they found the site empty again, because the building materials had moved again. No matter how much the others protested their innocence, they were not believed. The builders dragged everything back again. A few men sat down during the night as guards. Overcome by tiredness, they fell asleep. In their dreams they believed they were flying through the air. Oh, miracle, the building materials were found the next morning, neatly stacked, in the other place. Then they realized that God's will was for this location and the church was built there." It was dedicated to the Holy Trinity. Noteworthy is the sacrament house walled into the Gospel side with its simple iron lattice door. It was used to store and display the Holy Host. The nave of the church dates from 1773 and, like the portal, is Romanesque in style. The wall of the round bell tower is several meters thick and has only a small, narrow gap for light. The tower looks more like the defense tower of a castle than a church tower and stands outside the church on the Epistle side. After several interior renovations, the church was last given a new ambo made of the same stone as the existing altar in December 2003, as well as a baptismal font, for which a separate space was created in the rear area of the church.

Saint Barbara "Us Bäbschi" On the initiative of the Heimat und Verkehrsverein Thomm, under the then chairman Gerhard Keizer, this barbara picture cane was built from local slate in 1988. Many former Thommer miners volunteered to work on the stones and set up the wayside shrine. Sculptor and artist Michael Huber from Oberkirch in the Black Forest designed the figure according to special specifications. Her attribute of a tower (according to legend, her father locked her in a tower dungeon because he wanted to prevent Barbara's turn to Christianity) she received in her right hand. A miner's lamp in his left hand. The model for this was a miner's lamp (carbide lamp) as it was in use in the Thommer slate mines. After a solemn high mass, she was consecrated on Sunday, December 4th, 1988 by Father Hugo Leinz and Deacon Winfried Stadtfeld. Every year, after a long break, the miners' band "Glück Auf" is involved in the celebration of St. Barbara's Day in Thomm. "Source: Text information board
