The Huguenots were Calvinists. That's why the Calvin Church is also located on the Hugenottenplatz.

The Huguenot Church, also known as "Le Temple", was the first Huguenot church outside of France. It was a gift from Margrave Christian Ernst and was built between 1686 and 1693 according to plans by Johann Moritz Richter. Construction of the new town began with the laying of the foundation stone on July 14, 1686, and the 52 m high tower was not built until 1732-36.
The Margrave couple attended the service in their own box.
The church is only accessible to a limited extent. Information on opening times is available at: 09131 22164
