The park is 12 hectares in size, so much more than the name (6 acres = approx. 6 hectares) suggests.

The current St. Martin's Church dates only from 1854 and was preceded by another, much smaller church on the same site. That first church belonged to the Knights Templar, who donated it to the parish after the Council of Vienne in 1530. In 1711, part of the ceiling collapsed during a mass, killing five people. Then, in 1800, a violent storm destroyed the already towering spire. Around 1849-1850, Abbot Pluchart, the parish priest, began construction of the current church with the help of architect Leroy, which was consecrated in 1854. Following the law introducing the separation of church and state in 1905, the building was inventoried and became state property. As elsewhere in France, the state entrusted the heritage to the municipality. In 1917, the local blacksmith, under orders from the "German Command," was called upon, along with three companions, to remove the two bells and hand them over to the Germans so they could be turned into German artillery pieces. In 1922, the bells, bearing the names Solange-Augustine and Martine, were returned. The church sustained little damage during the 1939-1945 war (bombings and storms), and a restoration followed immediately in 1947-1948 (a stained-glass window above the portico and some stone repairs). In 1949-1950, the municipality gave the building its current appearance by removing the very narrow staircase made of Soignies stone and the protective fencing from the garden. Finally, in November 1977, the collapse of several vaults in the choir prompted the municipality to investigate and renovate the entire nave, repair, reinforce, or replace several pointed arches, and completely repaint the interior.

Plenty of trails and singletrack all around the hill. Uncrowded and very pretty.

This seemingly small church has all the hallmarks of a large one. Indeed, the building is built on the same architectural model as Lille Cathedral. Moreover, stained-glass window enthusiasts will notice the rare presence of hearts in the compositions.
