Origin and history

The Protestant temple of Saint-Malo is a religious monument located in the city of Saint-Malo, Brittany. Although its existence is attested, the available sources do not specify its construction period or the architectural or historical details associated with it. This place of worship is part of the urban landscape of Saint-Malo, a city marked by its maritime history and fortifications.

In the Breton context, Protestant temples have often played a community and spiritual role for the reformed populations. In Saint-Malo, as in other port cities, these buildings reflect religious diversity and cultural exchanges related to maritime activities. Their presence attests to the opening of the region to different influences, although local archives do not provide specific elements on this temple.
