Grand Temple, Protestant temple in Nîmes, France
The Grand Temple features a baroque architectural design with a prominent stone façade and black marble panels displaying the Decalogue inside.
Originally built between 1714 and 1736 as a Dominican church, the building became a Protestant place of worship in 1803 following Napoleon's Organic Articles.
The temple stands as a symbol of Protestant religious freedom in France, with Pastor Paul Rabaut leading its first service in 1792.
Located at 23 Boulevard Amiral-Courbet, the Grand Temple serves as the main Protestant church in Nîmes and holds regular religious services.
The temple contains an organ from 1821 and displays religious inscriptions on two black marble slabs behind its entrance.
