Old Saint Peter's Church, Strasbourg, Gothic church in Grand'Rue, Strasbourg, France.

The Old Saint Peter's Church features pointed arches, stone vaulted ceilings, and large stained glass windows displaying medieval craftsmanship.

Built in 1381, the church underwent a significant transformation in 1683 when Louis XIV ordered the construction of a wall separating Catholic and Protestant spaces.

The church houses Renaissance wooden reliefs, including the Holy Family by Hans Wydyz and Gothic paintings depicting the Passion of Christ by Heinrich Lutzelmann.

Located at 20 Grand'Rue in central Strasbourg, the church maintains regular opening hours and welcomes visitors from both Protestant and Catholic denominations.

A door created in 2012 replaced the centuries-old separation wall between Protestant and Catholic sections, marking a new era of interfaith accessibility.
