JUNAS , Gard – Cultural heritage

About

A Protestant legacy from the 19th century, the Junas temple stands out for its sober, elegant architecture, a testament to the local religious heritage.

Built around 1840, the Junas temple epitomizes 19th-century Protestant architecture, with its rectangular plan, sober facade with oculus and wooden door framed by ashlar. Its central stone bell tower, adorned with a small trefoil oculus, dominates the building. Four lateral buttresses reinforce the structure. Protected by a gate and accessible by a staircase, the temple is said to house an adjoining crypt.

Recent restoration work has enabled the interior to be restored, enhancing the value of this place of remembrance at the heart of Junas’ heritage.
