LE TEMPLE (THE TEMPLE)
Built in 1818 and 1822, this neoclassical temple is worth a visit for its astonishing Romanesque-Byzantine wood carvings (1919-1930) by Ernest Christen, pastor and artist. It is a building renowned for its interior paintings: paintings by Eric Hermès and stained glass windows by master glass artist Charles Wasem (based on models by Eric Hermès) complete the decoration. Some of the frescoes evoke the former parish of Carouge. The stained glass windows are also masterpieces for the period in which they were made. In addition to worship, concerts are organized.
