    The Franciscans from Metz, who were expelled from Sélestat during the Revolution, received permission from the Bishop of Strasbourg to resettle in the city shortly after the First World War in 1919.


    They initially lived in a house dedicated to Saint Anthony of Padua on Rue de Scherwiller. As it quickly became too small, they wanted to expand their monastery and also build a church, so they settled in Saint-Antoine. The neo-Gothic church was built by the architect Adolphe Molz, using pink sandstone for the façade stones rather than concrete, as originally planned, and was completed in 1931.

    The organ, installed in 1992, comes from the Chapel of Saint-Vincent-de-Paul de la Teppe in Tain l'Hermitage (Drôme) and was made by Joseph Merklin in 1885.

    Stained-glass windows from the Ott Frères workshop in Strasbourg illuminate the room and depict, among other things, episodes from the life of Saint Anthony.
    The carved sandstone pulpit is noteworthy. The deep choir features a high altar surmounted by an imposing Calvary. A special feature of the site is that each of the transept's wings houses two side altars. The impressive nativity scene can be viewed between December 25 and February 2.
