Christ the King
The church of Christ-King is typical of the 1930’s, on one hand modern in conception while basic elements and decorations are inspired by the religious architectural tradition of the region. It was inaugurated in 1937.
Outside to the left of the porch is a high brick belfry.
Inside is a large rose window with it’s stained-glass dedicated mainly to Saint Christopher and Don Bosco. There is a spare, sober Way of the Cross and among the paintings, in the right aisle is one depicting Good Friday by Marcel Marlier from Herseaux, well known as the author of the children’s’ books “Martine”. In the foreground of the painting is a silhouette of the famous artist.
