Protestant Temple Tour

Built in 1843, this temple, with its Greek pediment, is in the style of public buildings of the time.
On this pediment, the inscription «evangelical worship» recalls the divisions of the nineteenth, following the Concordat, between evangelical reformers and liberal reformers.
The interior is sober: in the center the pulpit and the table with bible and bare cross; on the walls, biblical verses.
On the left, a room that was a school from 1855 to 1882.
On the right, the teacher’s house, then the concierge.
