Eglise Protestante

Unie de l'Étoile

54, avenue de la Grande-Armée, 75017 Paris
In the 19th century, the area beyond the Place de l'Étoile was made up of wasteland and orchards that were gradually being built. Some Protestants were concerned that this newly built neighbourhood did not have a Protestant place of worship. In 1874 a church was built in the Gothic Revival style. Fifty years later, in 1924, the two buildings on the left and right of the temple were built to house all the activities of the parish.
