1. A TNF family ligand trimer-containing antigen binding molecule comprising
(a) at least one moiety capable of specific binding to a target cell antigen,
(b) a polypeptide comprising three ectodomains of a TNF ligand family member or fragments thereof that are connected to each other, optionally by peptide linkers, and
(c) a Fc domain composed of a first and a second subunit capable of stable association with each other, wherein the Fc domain is an IgG1 Fc domain or an IgG4 Fc domain, and
wherein the antigen binding molecule comprises
(i) a first heavy chain comprising the VH domain of a Fab molecule capable of specific binding to a target cell antigen,
(ii) a light chain comprising the VL domain of a Fab molecule capable of specific binding to a target cell antigen, and
(iii) a second heavy chain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:1, SEQ ID NO: 2, SEQ ID NO:3, SEQ ID NO:4, SEQ ID NO:5, SEQ ID NO:6, SEQ ID NO:7, SEQ ID NO: 8, SEQ ID NO:99, SEQ ID NO: 100, SEQ ID NO: 101 SEQ ID NO:102 or SEQ ID NO: 103.
