Sainte-Cécile

The current church was built in 1841 on the foundations of an older, smaller church. When it was built, the church was inverted, i.e. the heart was built on the old porch and vice versa. It is built of stone, which is itself covered in limestone. Its roof is unusual in that it is made of small slates. The sacristy was built in 1910. The church is surrounded by the cemetery. It is accessible to people with reduced mobility via a ramp at the front.

The interior of the church consists of a single nave containing :
- eight remarkable stained glass windows made by the Bary and Hintzen workshop in Koekelberg, dating from 1910 and donated by families in the village.
- around fifteen statues
- A Stations of the Cross dating from 1910.
- A pulpit.
- two confessionals
- a rood screen that is no longer in use (the current organ is in the choir).

The bell tower has two bells and an external clock on three sides.
