Notre-Dame of the Nativity Church in Licques

Highlight • Religious Site

The Church of Our Lady of the Nativity is the former chapel of the Abbey of Our Lady of Licques, located in Licques, in the Hauts-de-France region of France. The abbey was founded in 1132 under the name “College Church of the Virgin Mary” by a crusader for the benefit of the Premonstratensian order. From the old abbey, there remains today the abbey, that is to say the place of worship which was within the place of life, and which is similar today to other churches.

Norbertins Abbey

Highlight • Other

The former Norbertine abbey was renovated in the 18th century. The high nave and some buildings from the 18th century are still there. They now house the presbytery, the town hall and the school. The monks introduced turkeys to Licques in the 17th century. Only the church remains of the abbey, but the turkeys are still there and have made the town famous. Every year in December, the fête de la Dinde is celebrated.

The Audenfort Mill

Highlight • Structure

The Moulin d'Audenfort is an old flour mill from the beginning of the 19th century, located on the banks of the Hem. Transformed into a hydroelectric power station in the 1940s, it will become a hotel restaurant in the 1980s. After bankruptcy and nearly 2 years without being inhabited, we have decided to give it new life and share this magnificent place with you. Ideally located in the Calais, Boulogne, St Omer triangle, many cultural and sporting activities, or simply the discovery of the landscapes and heritage of the Côte d'Opale and Audomarois, will occupy your stay. Come and discover its environment, peaceful and relaxing as well as its interior, tastefully renovated, respecting its history. The living room, centerpiece of the mill, is crossed by the river, the mechanism is still present. You can have an aperitif at the bar, read a book by the fire, play a game of billiards or cards! The exterior will delight you, flowery and well maintained. A riverside terrace is available for sunny days. The garage can accommodate your motorcycles and bicycles.

Saint Bartholomew's Church

Highlight • Religious Site

The church is interesting for its fine central tower from the late 12th century, although the south and west facades were recreated in 1663. Inside the building, you will discover the bronze clock dating from the thirteenth century and still in service. Wooden statues of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, among which are represented St. Adrian, St. Anne and St. Wulmer, but also a remarkable Madonna and child will not leave you.
