The neo-Gothic church was built before 1597 and replaced another building from the 11th century, which stood near the current chapel of Notre-Dame des Affligés. It was partially rebuilt in 1855. The tower dates from 1683. The originality of this construction lies in the fact that the bell tower is not above the entrance door, but above the choir. The door is simply formed by a pointed arch decorated with a pentacle. The first two bays of the nave are built of red brick and the last two in chalk. The four bays of the nave also have a pointed arch. The bell tower is formed by a gable wall that projects above the nave. The buttresses on this side are placed in line with the wall, creating a flat surface. The buttresses of the bell tower on the choir side are well placed on the corners

The story of Esquerdes is linked to the development of two large paper and gunpowder industries, which developed from the time of Louis XIV to the 19th century and which led to a large population growth. In 1790, the town was large enough (with 500 inhabitants) to be named the capital of the canton. About two hundred years later, this figure had more than tripled. The church of St.Martin, dating from the twelfth century. The remains of a fifteenth-century chateau. The old paper mill, still working in a small capacity. The gunpowder factory.

It is a former French gunpowder factory that was founded in the 17th century by the “Régie Royale des Poudres et Salpêtres” under Louis XIV to supply the army with gunpowder and to meet certain civilian needs. The factory closed in 1972 and has been abandoned since then. The site is polluted by large quantities of nitrates that remain in the soil.
