About the location

Église protestante unie de Courbevoie - La Garenne-Colombes

14 rue Kilford 92400 Courbevoie

Île-de-France

Work on the Kilford Street Temple began in October 1952 and continued until its inauguration on October 11, 1953\. The building is built of reinforced concrete, following the plans of the architects Verrey father & son. Its inverted hull-shaped vault is made of glulam wood. The three bells, La Charité, La Foi and L'Espérance, were manufactured and installed by the Paccard foundry. On the pediment of the temple are the statues of the four evangelists: John with the eagle, Matthew with the angel, Mark with the lion and Luke with the bull. The organ built by Erwinn Muller was installed on 16 October 1955\. Since the rapprochement of the Lutheran and Reformed Protestant churches in 2013, the Kilford Street Temple is now called the Courbevoie-La Garenne-Colombes United Protestant Church.
