In the 1850s and 1860s, the district between Les Invalides and the Military School had many craftsmen. Many came from Germany or Alsace and were Lutheran Protestant. Faced with this growing demand, the pastor Eugène Berger opened a primary school on Avenue Bosquet in 1962. Denis Boehler, architect of this first school, also owned a beautiful wooded lot of 4,500 m2 on Rue de Grenelle, which was exceptional in this district. He built for his family a beautiful house with a winter garden, as well as a pavilion for the caretaker. When he died in 1890, he left the Lutheran Church, by will, with his land and the money needed to build a church and outbuildings so that the community could flourish. The two houses were also donated, and later became the rectory — the residence of the pastor and his family — and the caretaker's dwelling. The religious building was built between 1910 and 1911 on the plans of Naville and Choquet, authors of several Lutheran ensembles in Paris, in a style inspired by the neo-Gothic, which was fashionable during the second part of the 19th century for religious buildings.
