I saw this imposing structure at the center of Mulhouse and thought it was a cathedral but it's actually a Protestant church that is Calvinist. Standing 97 meters tall, the bell tower is visible from outside the city and certainly dominates any of the lanes or pedestrian streets inside the city with a view. This is not the first structure here - there had been a Romanesque building from the 12th century but it was removed in 1858. The new building was constructed between 1859 and 1866, designed by Jean-Bapsiste Schacre. Inside the church, don't miss the leaded-glass windows that date to the 13th century. And if you're here when they ring, the bells are the largest of any Protestant church in France. [Review 21201 overall - 117 in France - 165 of 2024.] read more

Fidèle à ses convictions premières Edifice néo-gothique bâti en 1866 par Jean-Baptiste Schacre à la place de l'ancienne église paroissiale datant du XVIe siècle qui rappelle que la ville, n'est passée à la Réforme qu'en 1528. Les très beaux vitraux datent du XIVe siècle et proviennent en fait de l'ancienne église. Leur composition est inspirée du Speculum Humana Salvationis de Ludolphe le Chartreux. Installé au coeur du Mulhouse piétonnier et commerçant, en plein sur la Place de la Réunion, ce temple qui a été classé monument historique en 1995, fait l'objet d'un large plan de rénovation qui devrait durer jusqu'en 2014 ou plus. En effet, l'édifice étant constitué de grès rose d'Alsace, la pluie et les intempéries ont eu raison de sa solidité. Il est également le théâtre de nombreux concerts, tout comme sa place qui abrite le marché de Noël chaque année.
