Description
Gaby Kretz's sculpture in the cloister of Saint-Pierre-le-Jeune Protestant Church, Strasbourg, France.
The Saint-Pierre-le-Jeune Protestant Church is one of the most important church buildings of the city of Strasbourg, France, from the art historical and architectural viewpoints. It got its name, "Young St. Peter's", because of the existence of three other St. Peter's churches in the same city: Saint-Pierre-le-Vieux ("Old St. Peter's"), divided into a Catholic and a Lutheran church, and Saint-Pierre-le-Jeune catholique, a massive neo-Romanesque domed church from the late 19th century.
The church has been Lutheran since 1524 and its congregation forms part of the Protestant Church of Augsburg Confession of Alsace and Lorraine. It is located on the Route Romane d'Alsace.
Three of the four arched galleries of the cloister date from the 11th century, the fourth arched gallery is from the 14th century.
Gaby Kertz sculpture exhibition from May 31 to October 31, 2019 in Saint-Pierre-le-Jeune Protestant Church, Strasbourg.
