Protestant church in Nantes

This building on Place Édouard-Normand is a place of worship with clean, minimalist design from 1958, featuring an open interior space with a gallery for gatherings. The basement level provides additional rooms for various functions beyond the main prayer space.

The original building from 1855 was destroyed by bombing in 1943. This replacement was built in the 1950s to serve the congregation that had lost its former home.

The congregation gathers here as a meeting place and displays a modest collection of documents and artifacts that trace the Protestant presence in the region across generations.

The building is centrally located and easy to reach on foot, with good space for visitors and community events. The straightforward modern design makes it simple to find your way around and accommodates various activities.

A large abstract stained glass window from 1978 decorates the interior with geometric shapes and colors based on an original design. This artwork was created by artist Yves Dehais following Guy David's vision and strongly shapes how the worship space looks.
