Description

The first temple in Arvieux was built in the 16th century and then destroyed when the Edict of Nantes was revoked. It was subsequently rebuilt in the 19th century.
The date 1887 is engraved in the tympanum of the late 19th-century portal, and, as the date engraved on the ridge tells us, the roof was restored in 1925. The windows feature geometric glass, and the building is constructed of stone, rubble and plaster, on an elongated plan with a single nave, and is protected by a long-sloped roof with a covered gable. The tympanum is decorated with a sculpture representing a Bible, a palm and an olive branch.
