An 18th-century painting depicting the Descent from the Cross was modeled on a painting by Peter Paul Rubens. Statues of Saint Barbara (2nd half of the 17th century) and Saint Lucia (about 1700) are made of white-painted wood. An 18th-century crucifix is made of wood and terracotta.
The neo-Gothic main altar (1890) is a design by Jean-Baptiste Bethune. Around 1785 a baroque organ was purchased, which probably comes from a monastery that was closed by Emperor Joseph II. The organ was made in 1675 by Blasius Bremser.

The Kempen brick Gothic tower from around 1500 is the only remnant of the old Sint-Lambertus church and was protected as a monument in 1953.
In 1878 the old church was replaced by a neo-Gothic building. The church building was restored between 1994 and 1996.
The Baroque organ in the church dates from the 17th century and was listed in 1981. The neo-Gothic altar retable after a design by Jan Baptist Bethune is from 1890.
