Église St Matthieu protestante, Protestant church in Colmar, France.

The Saint-Matthieu church features a 30-meter choir illuminated by large windows and a 43-meter nave separated by a rood screen.

The Franciscans constructed the church in 1292, and in 1543 the city of Colmar acquired the building to establish a hospital.

The church houses a wooden Christ sculpture from the late 15th century and contains oil paintings decorating the balustrades and gallery panels.

Visitors can access the church on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays from 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM, subject to volunteer availability.

The separation wall between the nave and choir, erected in 1715 under royal orders, remained in place for 272 years until its removal in 1987.
