Église Protestante Unie de Nice Saint-Esprit stands in Nice, France, as a Reformed Protestant landmark with a rare neo-Gothic silhouette. Pointed arches and ribbed vaults define the building’s most recognisable features. W.G. Haberson designed it for Nice’s American Episcopal community, which completed construction in 1886. Its 1888 inauguration used the name Church of the Holy Spirit.

The French-speaking Reformed congregation later acquired the former Episcopal church after its premises on boulevard Dubouchage developed maintenance problems. It moved into the building in 1974. Before then, worshippers shared the Waldensian temple on rue Gioffredo, then used Dubouchage for about seventy years. That transition connected the site with the Reformed Church of France.

Today, the congregation belongs to the United Protestant Church of France, while the church also supports a long-running concert series. Programmes feature chamber music, organ recitals and church music. Commentary from performers or presenters accompanies some concerts, linking musical interpretation with the building’s spiritual setting. Since 2020, its facades, roofs, presbytery and enclosure elements have held official historical-monument protection.
