Temple protestant de Tours, Protestant church in Vieux-Tours, France
The Protestant Temple of Tours is a building with simple architecture and clean lines that reflect reformed principles of worship. The interior space was designed for religious gatherings and services.
The building was originally constructed in 1676 as a chapel with a different religious purpose. Protestants purchased and converted it into a temple in 1844.
The temple carries the name of the Protestant faith and serves today as a gathering place for the local congregation. You can observe worshippers meeting for regular services and using the space for community events.
The temple sits on Rue de la Prefecture in central Tours and is easy to reach from the street. Keep in mind that this is an active place of worship, so quiet and respectful behavior is important.
Inside the church stands a modern organ that a builder created between 2003 and 2007 specifically for this space. This instrument replaced an earlier one and now provides the sound for worship services.
