The Oratoire du Louvre was the royal chapel of
the kings of France from 1623 onwards. It was an
enlargement of a former private building which
became a chapel in 1616. The last three bays of
the nave and the facade were not completed
until 1740.
In 1811, it was given to the Protestants by
Napoleon. The Higher Rooms, the tribunes and
the entrance tambour were built between 1820
and 1828 and the Gallery-terrace was built by
Baltard (who was Protestant) during the
construction of the rue de Rivoli in 1854.
