Church becoming a place for concerts, conferences, theaters and exhibitions

According to the remaining sources, the church of Saint-Pierre-Le-Vieux would be the first Christian cultural building in Strasbourg, built near the Roman castel of Argentoratum. What we see nowadays dates from the end of the 14th and beginning of the 15th century. During the annexation of Strasbourg by Louis XIV, it was dedicated to two cults: the nave to the Protestants and the choir to the Catholics. Following a drastic fall of the parishioners, the church became a venue for concerts, conferences, theatres and exhibitions. A very beautiful historical heritage is visible there: Gothic rood screen of 7 bays, large relief in polychrome carved wood from 1520, paintings of the south and west tribunes retracing the life of Christ...

Très belle église
C'est une très belle église en plein centre ville. J'aime bien m'y arrêter pour admirer son architecture, ses vitraux.

C'est à priori la seule église qui soit à la fois catholique et protestante, puisque chacun des cultes dispose d'une partie de l'église et que les deux ne sont séparées que par une simple porte.
Elle recèle de très beaux tableaux sur la vie de St-Pierre et la passion du Christ.

Superbe !! Regardez les plafonds. Repérez les reflets des vitraux sur les murs. Petit bijou éclipsé par la Cathédrale malheureusement.
