Not to be missed

The Pierre Brunehault, located in Brunehaut near Tournai, is an impressive megalith and one of the largest and oldest menhirs in Belgium. This mysterious stone, over four metres high, dates back to prehistoric times and has been the subject of stories and legends about its origins and meaning for centuries.

The Church of St. Aybert in Bléharies, a sub-municipality of Brunehaut, is a remarkable example of Art Deco architecture. After a fire in 1918, the church was rebuilt by architect Henry Lacoste. The new church, completed in 1926, has a unique triangular façade and a tall octagonal bell tower that stands apart from the main building, reminiscent of a minaret. Inside the church, you will find colorful ceramics with palm trees adorning the main façade, and an authentic sarcophagus of Saint Aybert (1060-1140), a hermit associated with the Benedictine abbey of Crespin. The church is a rare example of Art Deco in religious buildings and offers a fascinating mix of historical and artistic elements.

Bléharies is located in the Brunehaut area. On the square is the stylish St. Aybert church in Art Nouveau from 1926 by architect Henry Lacoste: glazed statues in the facade and also beautiful on the inside.

Return to the starting point on the square and its 1926 church.

Brewers of Brunehaut and St. Martin beer. Brewery is closed on the weekends. Could not tell if there was a shop.

Right next to the most beautiful nemhir in Belgium. Here you can rest on benches and enjoy the beautiful landscape and many plantations with fruit trees, blossoms and flowers

Beautiful piece with distant landscapes between the fruit orchards and flowers. Definitely worth it in the spring when everything is in bloom
