Temple Saint-Étienne

The church of Saint-Etienne was built between 1855 and 1860. After several proposals, the project of the Haut-Rhin architect Jean-Baptiste Schacre was finally chosen, on the recommendation of Eugène Viollet-le-Duc. The new neo-Gothic style building will have a bell tower-porch, a nave with side aisles, a transept, a choir surrounded by an ambulatory and radiating chapels. The original stained glass windows are partially preserved, those in the aisles were destroyed during the Second World War and replaced.

The Synagogue in Mulhouse is an Ashkenazi synagogue completed in 1849 by architect Jean-Baptiste Schacre. This Rundbogenstil stone building still serves as a synagogue.

This church has an octagonal central plan, typical of Ottonian architecture, which draws its inspiration from Byzantine and Paleochretian architecture. Besides this remarkable characteristic, the church benefits from an important supporter since it was founded by Rodolphe d'Altenbourg, one of the founders of the house of Habsburg.
