The central node of the village grid, the church of Saint-Martin and its walled cemetery border the Place de Ragnies.

This beautiful building, which has been altered several times, still has a tower and a nave of Romanesque origin, built in the 12th century. The latter is extended by a choir in the Hennuyer Gothic style, built at the end of the 16th century.

Inside, authentic baroque oak stalls (rows of wooden seats linked together and aligned along the choir walls), similar to those in the church of Cockayne in England, enhance the choir entrance.

The building has been a listed building since 1936.
