New Protestant church at Leghorn, 1864. Creator: Unknown
New Protestant church at Leghorn, [Livorno, Italy], 1864. A '...church just built...by what is called the "Dutch and German Protestant Congregation"...The greater freedom now accorded to Protestants by the Constitution of the United Kingdom of Italy, promulgated in 1859, has encouraged them to provide a more decent building for the performance of their religious services; and, by means of subscriptions amongst the members, as well as by donations received from Holland, Germany, and Switzerland, they have been enabled, at a cost of about £5000, to erect the church which was consecrated by their clergyman, Dr. L. Detroit...in the presence of most of the English, Scotch, and other Protestant residents of Leghorn, besides a vast concourse of people...Divine service will be continued, as heretofore, every Sunday, alternately in the French and German language; the congregation consisting, at present, mostly of German and Swiss families, a few of the latter belonging to the French cantons of Switzerland...The architect of the building is Mr. Dario Giacomelli'.
