Saint-Jacques Church of Lembach
Highlight • Religious Site
The Protestants took possession of the church in 1561 when they became masters of the city.
They used it as a place of worship for several years.
In 1563, the church was returned to the Catholics under the Peace of Amboise.
In 1564, Catherine de Medici and Charles IX were received here.
In 1567, the Huguenots demolished the spire and part of the church vault
and used the church as a fortress.
During sieges, the bell tower served as an observation tower.
On the north and west sides of the base below the bell tower, which was faithfully replaced in 1740, one can see traces of the cannonballs fired by Louis XIII's army during the 1621 siege.
Following the destruction of the Moustier district, the Church of Saint-Jacques became the city's cathedral between 1630 and 1739.
