"Jarnac was very early one of the Calvinist homes of Angoumois. After a first temple installed in a barn near the castle and destroyed in 1684, a second temple was built in 1761. The current temple probably existed in 1806. It was the subject of expansion and redevelopment work in the 19th century: from 1820, enlargement and raising of the temple, these works allowing access to the temple from the street; in 1888 repairs and interior fittings.
The temple, with a very elongated rectangular plan, has two distinct parts: the old house of prayer from 1761 and the extension, with a neoclassical facade expressing the sobriety of the Reformed Church. It has been listed as a historic monument since 1998. "

Le temple actuel existait vraisemblablement en 1806. Il a fait l’objet de travaux d’agrandissement et de réaménagement au XIXe siècle : à partir de 1820, agrandissement et rehaussement du temple, ces travaux permettant l’accès au temple depuis la rue ; en 1888 réparations et aménagements intérieurs.
Le temple, de plan rectangulaire très allongé, comporte deux parties distinctes : l’ancienne maison d’oraison de 1761 et l’extension, possédant une façade néo-classique exprimant la sobriété de l’église réformée. Il est inscrit monument historique depuis 1998. "
