In 1895 the building had become too small and needed replacement. Pastor Louis Vernes had a new temple with a high steeple built to the designs of the architect Félix Paumier. The neo-Romanesque façade was made of stone. The building could hold 1,000 people. The interior walls made of brick leant on metal lintels, a technique often used at the time, notably for the Sainte-Clotilde and Notre-Dame du Travail churches.
In 1872 a floor was built halfway up, which enabled to arrange meeting rooms on the ground floor underneath the worship room.
In 1898 it was provided with an organ with mechanical transmission made by Joseph Mercklin.
Nowadays the Reformed parish of the Batignolles has joined the United Protestant Church of France. It is well integrated in a multicultural environment. Every year, the parish organises a Nuit blanche (all-nighter) during which several pastors come and give short sermons.
