Listed as a historic monument, it was built in the 15th and 16th centuries. Dominating the village is this important one stone construction with a sandstone base and an 8th century bell tower. The architecture of the ship is remarkable, especially for its vaults and chapels. The first church of Agnez, whose date of construction is unknown, was destroyed in 1475 by the French troops of Louis 12. Only the tower and the choir remain. But traces of the old ship are still visible at the foot of the tower. The 15th century bell tower was raised around 1632 and topped by a stone spire. The building was then restored between 1842 and 1845 by architect A. Grigny. The interior of the church is decorated in Gothic style. The tower has a defensive appearance, which leads us to believe that it served as a lookout post during military tensions. Indeed, we can see a crenellated balustrade at the top of the tower protecting the walkway from enemy fire. Loopholes have also been created in the front of the tower so that spectators can watch without being seen. They could also shoot their attacker from cover. To complicate and delay the siege of the church, diagonal buttresses are placed on the walls of the tower. We can also note that the tower does not have large windows that could facilitate the penetration of attackers into the church. The only openings in the tower are the abat sounds that allowed to spread the sound of the bells, used in certain cases to warn the population of an attack.

The Église Saint-Martin in Habarcq is a historic building with a rich history. It was originally built in the 13th century by Jehan de Habarcq, but was quickly destroyed and burned during the conflicts between Louis the French Revolution. The church has a number of unique features, including the fact that it was originally a chapel attached to the de Habarcq family castle. It only became a parish church in 1806. Inside the church there were windows (which are still visible) that allowed the gentlemen to attend religious ceremonies without having to move. Built in the Gothic style, the church has a number of interesting architectural features, including richly decorated windows depicting vegetative and animal motifs from the medieval bestiary. Above the first window you can see the coat of arms of the Count of Lens, lord of Habarcq. The church is located in the heart of the village and is partly hidden by its proximity to the castle. The interior is completely covered in woodwork and paneling, said to come from a cedar tree from Lebanon that once stood in the castle's park and was uprooted by a storm in 1940.

The castle adjoining the Habarcq church is a historic monument located in Habarcq. The facades and roofs of the castle are listed as historical monuments by decree of April 5, 1948. The castle is private property

The Church of St. Brigude is a church in Givenchy-le-Noble, a commune in the Pas-de-Calais department in northern France. The church dates from the eighteenth century and was built in the seventeenth century. The church is owned by the municipality and is managed by the Parish of Sainte Marie de l'Assomption. The architecture of the church is interesting, with a nave built of red bricks and a choir of chalk stone.

The Château de Givenchy-le-Noble is a castle in Givenchy-le-Noble. The castle was built in 1716 by François de Lelès, an adviser to the Aides d'Artois, whose coat of arms is visible on the pediment. The facades, roofs, entrance gate and pilasters of the castle have been partially registered as a historical monument since May 12, 1976. The castle consists of a central body with five bays and two wings, each two bays long. The central body has a forebody crowned with a little developed pediment.

At the beginning of the 18th century, the flow of the Crinchon (river of about twenty kilometers which flows between Bailleulmont and Saint-Nicolas before flowing into the Scarpe) is weak, irregular and its waters are of poor quality. The city of Arras needs healthy and abundant water for the inhabitants and for the drinking troughs of the cavalry barracks. In 1723, at his request, the springs that gush out in Brétencourt, a hamlet of Rivière, were collected in a reservoir, it is a vast rectangular basin surrounded by brick walls now called "Carré des sources". Its dimensions: 33 m long, 11 m wide and 8 m deep. The works were carried out by the Military Engineering on the orders of the king, who financed them, as recalled by a sandstone sealed in a wall: "In the year 1723, under the reign of Louis XV, the sources of the Crinchon were sought and enclosed in this basin at the expense of the king" Le Carré des sources delivers 64 liters per second of water that is extremely fresh and remarkably clear. The stream thus formed crosses the park of the castle and joins the initial bed of the Crinchon, after a course of 500 m. The flow being capricious, the system was completed by the digging of a few artesian wells, from the end of the 18th century.
