The Église Saint-Pierre aux Liens is a church in Guînes, France. It is one of five parish churches that Guînes once owned. The church has been rebuilt and restored several times, and the current structure was built in 1822. The church has a remarkable pulpit dating from 1706, which contains an image of an abbess holding a book while a dove flies above her head.

Of the five churches listed in Guînes in the Middle Ages, only the church of Saint-Pierre has survived. It is of very ancient origin and its name is already mentioned in 1306 in the documents of Artois. It was restored in 1660 and destroyed in 1820 because of the damage suffered during the Revolution. The present church was inaugurated in 1822. Inside you can discover a true work of art: the pulpit, whose carved panels are particularly admirable.
