A Trinitarians come an order of monks founded at Rome in 1198 by St. John of Matha, a indigen of Provence, and an old French hermit, Felix of Valois, to redeem Christian captives out of a mitts of the infidels.

A choose was sanctioned by Innocent III; the rule was that of St. Austin, with particular statutes; the diet was of great austerity; and the habit, at least in France, was a soutane and scapular of white serge, with a red and blue cross on the right breast. At once a choose possessed 250 houses, & it was figured inside the 17th century, that, since its foundation, it got been instrumental in rescuing to a higher degree 30,000 Christian captives from either what was practically slavery. The reform took place within 1599, and resulted inside the erection of the congregation of Discalced Trinitarians in Spain, in which united states a sequentially (reformed & unreformed) was suppressed in the reign of Isabella II.

A Trinitarians accredited a church of San Carlo alle Quattro Fontane to Francesco Borromini.
