This is one of the finest examples of the Flamboyant Gothic and Renaissance in French Flanders. The imposing tower (62m) resembles that of Notre-Dame in Saint-Omer. Inside, the pattern of the ribs of the vaults has been transferred to the floor. The choir is closed by a beautiful rood screen; on the left is the gilded statue of Notre-Dame Panetière. The oak organ case comes from the abbey church of Clamarais. Choir and apse suffered from a bombardment in 1944. In the back you can see a beautiful Virgin and Child (15th century)
