Church surrounded by oval churchyard with brick wall and sandstone coping blocks. Access via western iron gate on brick pillars with bluestone ball crowning (1864) and a staircase to the southeast. Situated on a small square with lime trees.
History
In 1040, Reinelmus and Ida donated half of the church to the Sint-Pietersabdij in Ghent. Originally a Romanesque church (13th century), around 1500 provided with a Gothic choir and buttresses. Tower replaced in 1648. Thorough renovation in 1767 (see stone in southern aisle). Restorations in 1864-65 by architect E. Van Hoecke-Peeters and in 1919.
