Does the church still exist because I couldn't find it on the net?

I couldn't find it either and suspect that it is mislabeled. It might be a church in Saint-Michel, a city in Alsace

Or perhaps it's no longer a church and hence can't be found on the net?

An American soldier from Company B, 68th Armored Infantry Battalion, 4th Armored Division, engages German
snipers entrenched in a spire of the church of Saint-Michel, while the tank in the foreground provides supporting fire in Place de l'Église, Oberhoffen-sur-Moder, Bas-Rhin, Alsace, France. February 6 1945. (The church was destroyed during the liberation of the town and was rebuilt in 1956)

The English Lutheran Church of Saint-Michel. Looks like they kept the motifs (arched doorway, round window in the spire) but switched things up a bit when they rebuilt. Note the colors as well.
