The United Protestant Church of the Annunciation is a Protestant church built in 1891. The first parish building was an Anglican chapel made of wood salvaged from the 1867 World Exhibition. Pastor Edmond Stapfer was responsible for the construction of the present building, which was erected on land donated by the Delessert family by the architect Edouard Aubert. Aubert designed the building in the neo-Romanesque style, built in millstone.

Chapelle Notre-Dame du Saint-Sacrement

The chapel of Our Lady of the Blessed Sacrament was built in 1900 in a neo-Romanesque style. The vault is reminiscent of the Abbey of Men in Caen. It is flooded with light, which its beautiful modern stained glass windows allow to pass through. The uniformly white colour of the interior accentuates this impression. The chapel is attached to the parish church of Notre-Dame-de-Grâce-de-Passy.

Église Notre-Dame-de-l'Assomption

Notre-Dame-de-l'Assomption de Passy was built by the Pères de la Miséricorde, a missionary order for the rechristianisation of cities, at the end of the 19th century. Following the law of 1901, the Fathers were expelled and the church was closed until 1907 when it was reopened as an annexe chapel of the church of Notre-Dame-de-Grâce-de-Passy. In 1914, the church became a parish church and in 1928, the church took the name of Notre-Dame-de-l'Assomption.
