The Saint Paul's Church in Langemark, also known as the Saint Paul's Bekering Church, is a neo-Gothic hall church built between 1923 and 1925. The church, designed by architect Thierry Nolf, has an imposing western tower and stands on the market square, surrounded by lime trees. The original church was completely destroyed during the First World War, and the current structure was rebuilt afterwards.
Inside the church you will find stained glass windows and a contemporary work of art, "Way of the Cross of Love", by the Brussels painter Luc Hoenraet.

Langemark's quadrangular market square is dominated by the three-aisled neo-Gothic hall church of Sint-Paulus, built in 1923-1925 by architect Thierry Nolf from Torhout. The church has a heavy western tower and stands in the middle of a lawn lined with linden.

Because everything was lost in the First World War, the church does not contain any major church treasures, except for the stained glass windows. In 2002, when the parish existed nine hundred years, the liturgical room with altar, lectern and chairs was redesigned. The church is regularly used for concerts, recitation, lectures.

Since 2009, the church has been enriched with the contemporary work of art "Way of the Cross of Love": 5 powerful canvases depict Golgotha and the crucifixion, but also the Descent from the Cross and the Resurrection of Jesus. The work is by the Brussels material painter Luc Hoenraet.
