Temple protestant - Sancerre, France - Continental Reformed and Congregational Church Sites on Waymarking.com

[FR] Les deux temples précédents ont été démolis du 26 octobre au 17 novembre 1685 et leurs chaires brûlées.

Les matériaux sont récupérés pour construire la chapelle des "nouvelles converties" inaugurée le 29 septembre 1700. Ironie du sort, la jouissance de cette chapelle est concédée aux protestants provisoirement en 1797 puis à perpétuité par décret impérial du 20 juillet 1807. Ceux-ci célébrent donc leur culte dans un édifice bâti avec les pierres de celui que leurs ancêtres avaient édifié en 1610.

[EN] The previous temples were demolished from October 26 to November 17, 1685 and their pulpits were burned.

The building material was used to construct the Chapel of the "new converts" inaugurated September 29, 1700. In a sort of ironie, the use of this chapel was ceded to the protestants temporarily in 1797 and later completely by the Imperial decree of July 20, 1807. The members therefore worship in an edifice that was built with the stones of the church which their ancestors had built in 1610.
