Saint Lawrence
A church to be discovered when visiting the sites that commemorate the First World War, wih a Portuguese and an Indian cemetery visible at the entrance of the village, and an unusual war memorial in front of the church, representing a French soldier lying across a cenataph.
The church of St. Lawrence is one mong the 250 churches that were rebuilt after the destructions of the Great War. It replaces a 16th century building, which succeeded a 12thcentury romanesque building whose origines went back to the 6th century, period of the evangelisation of Artois by St. Vedast.
Built between 1918 and 1925, in lighht irregular stone blocks, the church is monumental in dimension and high with the proportions of its neo-romane
Nave and neo-gothic sanctuary. The interior contains rich liturgical furnishings : confessionals with particularly fine sculptures, a 16th century baptismal font of granite, a stoup , and the history of the church presented in the narthex.
