Первый одесский портал o1.ua - «Глобус Одессы»:

 

"For almost 120 years, a magnificent architectural monument has pleased the eyes of Odessans: the Reformed Church building on Pasteur St., #62. Please forgive us,  Russian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate, but this to us seems to be the most beautiful church in Odessa.

 

"She came as if out of a fairy tale. This unusual building of northern-European inspiration greets us at the exit of Central Park and defines the landscape of one of the most significant points in the center of Odessa. Today, the Evangelical Presbyterian Church is located in the building, and during the Soviet Union a puppet theater operated there.

 

"The church was built during 1892-1896. Her designer was Victor Schroeter, an ethnic German from St. Petersburg. His name is not the most famous in the classical architecture of Odessa, but it was Schroeter who was honored as the chief architect of the old train station, which was destroyed during World War II."
