The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Eglise construite en 1864 par Emile Boeswillwald, puis agrandie en 1875-1876. L'édifice est supporté par des structures métalliques et couvert d'un plafond charpenté. Des colonnes baguées en fonte reçoivent les poussées. L'utilisation de formes géométriques simples (carré et double triangle) fait référence au style mauresque. L'intérieur s'orne de motifs végétaux et floraux stylisés peints. Les vitraux ont disparu.

Church built in 1864 by Emile Boeswillwald, then enlarged in 1875-1876. The building is supported by metal structures and covered with a timber ceiling. Ringed cast-iron columns receive the thrusts. The use of simple geometric forms (square and double triangle) is a reference to Moorish style. The interior is decorated with stylised painted plant and floral motifs. The stained glass windows have disappeared.
