Temple Grignan, Protestant church in 6th arrondissement, Marseille, France.
The limestone building features a portico supported by Doric columns and includes a central skylight illuminating the single nave interior layout.
The temple opened in 1825 following approval from the Council of Civil Buildings, with architect Michel-Robert Penchaud supervising the construction process.
Temple Grignan stands as one of the first Protestant worship centers in Marseille after religious restrictions were lifted following the French Revolution.
The building underwent substantial structural renovations in 2012 to maintain its functionality while preserving architectural elements for future generations.
The 1868 renovation by architect Henri-Jacques Espérandieu expanded the seating capacity from 850 to 1,500 through interior modifications.
