À propos
Situated opposite the old train station, at the crossroads of the Route d'Albé, the Protestant church and the adjoining presbytery are red brick buildings with grey sandstone door and window frames. The church is a rectangular building, flanked on the north side by a bell tower covered with slate in its upper part.
The side walls are pierced with high, narrow ogival windows. - The interior, well-lit by its 9 high windows, is rectangular. The decoration, very sober, consists on the sides of a frieze of stylized painted fleurs-de-lis. The simple wooden benches can accommodate a hundred faithful.
In the centre of the choir there is a wooden altar on which a wooden cross and three embossed brass candleholders are placed. On the left is a harmonium and a lectern carrying an old German Bible. On the right is a small wooden pulpit, whose reading table is decorated with a hammered brass cross.
