Old chapel of St. Croix on a hill. Steep access road but fun to do and see.

The Chapelle Sainte-Croix in Braine-le-Château is a 16th century historical monument, located on a steep hill offering a magnificent view of the village and its surroundings. Built in the Romanesque style, the chapel consists of a nave with a three-sided choir and an elegant tower. Inside, you will find a 17th century baroque altar, a communion rail from 1656, and an iron tringle which, according to legend, was brought back by a crusader and was supposed to fit the height of Christ. Every year on 3 May, or the following Sunday, a mass is held in honour of the Invention de la Sainte Croix. The Chapelle Sainte-Croix is a major religious and cultural heritage site that is open to visitors by appointment.
