Neo-Romanesque Catholic church built between 1889 and 1893 by the architects Skjold Neckelmann and August Hartel, the same ones behind the Palais de Justice and the university library. It was built for the growing Catholic population of the German Neustadt after 1871. Its dome, one of the largest in Alsace, stands out, next to the Palais de Justice, at the corner of rue Finkmatt and rue de Castelnau.
