Saint Thomas Church, Strasbourg, France.

The Saint-Thomas Church (French: Église Saint-Thomas, German: Thomaskirche) is the main Protestant church of Strasbourg since Strasbourg's Cathedral became Catholic again after the annexation of the town by France in 1681. It is nicknamed the "Protestant Cathedral" (la cathédrale du Protestantisme alsacien, Kathedrale der Protestanten) or the Old Lady (Die alte Dame), and the only example of a hall church in the Alsace region.
