Hiking

The first mention of a church dates back to 977 and appears on a diploma of Emperor Otto II. The first church was a Romanesque church. In 1885, plans were made to enlarge the church and restore the tower, choir, and transept. However, the church was in such poor condition that it was demolished. Only the tower was preserved. The new and current church was designed according to the guidelines of the Neo-Scheldt Gothic style and was constructed of Tournai stone. The church has been a protected monument since 1945.

Hiking

The church is currently empty, and a new purpose is being sought.
Meanwhile, the church is closed and no longer hosts Eucharistic celebrations. The church is still used for additional activities, such as organ concerts, Catholic school retreats, and so on.
