    Watou and St Bavo's Church host a world famous festival of Gregorian music every 3 years. St Bavo comes from the Romantic era and has a very beautiful organ. The small village is also worth a visit in between, especially because of the good restaurants. We particularly recommend de Paterstafel and 't Hommelhof.

      In the rural village center of Watou is the Saint Bavo Church, a three-aisled hall church, which has preserved the brick part of the west facade of the central nave and the tower base from its Romanesque construction from 1150-1200. In the 16th century, the church was enlarged and Gothic remodeled. The sacristy dates from 1804, the baptistery and porch are from 1837. The pseudo-Romanesque gable with rose window and part of the octagonal crossing tower are from the 19th century. The groin vault of 1840 was designed by priest-architect J. Clarysse.
