This is where the Somme River rises. Its name is traced back to Celtic origins and also gives its name to the department of the same name. At the time when Gaul was part of the Roman Empire, the river was called the Samara. It ends its approximately 245-kilometer-long river life in the Baie de Somme, where it flows into the English Channel.

Completely constructed in white and black stone, the Basilica of Saint-Quentin is the second Gothic building in Picardy. Built between the end of the 12th and the end of the 15th centuries, it is best known as the burial place of the martyr Quentin, who gave it its name. Listed as a historical monument, the building boasts original architecture, with a porch tower over 34 meters high, a double transept, and a concentric choir. Inside, visitors are captivated by the ancient 260-meter-long labyrinth carved into the nave's paving. Stained glass windows installed at various times complement the artistic offerings of the Basilica of Saint-Quentin, particularly medieval stained glass windows in the 12th-century apse chapels. These depict episodes from the lives of the Virgin Mary and Saint Stephen.

The Église Saint-Martin et Sainte Anne de Macquigny is one of the westernmost fortified churches in the region and is often considered part of the Thiérache. Built in the 12th century, it still retains elements of the original Romanesque structure, such as the south wall with two now bricked-up arcades and a simple entrance with the date "1501" indicating the fortification of the tower. The building has imposing buttresses and unique watchtowers with loopholes and machicolations. The choir was restored in 1754 and inside are 15th century baptismal fonts, a 16th century wooden statue of Christ and stained glass windows by master glassmaker Carl Mauméjean. Although the church is usually closed to the public, guided tours are organised by the municipality from April to September.
