The Jardin de la Paix Belge was created in 2018 by the collective artist group Plan B, consisting of Thomas Van Eeckhout and Mathieu Allain. The park is located in the fortifications of Le Quesnoy and is a symbol of peace and memory. The park was designed with a concept in which part of the city walls of Le Quesnoy is projected horizontally onto a lawn. The walls, originally 12 meters high, are now terraces that offer a peaceful place for walks and reflection.

The original church on this site was Sainte-Marguerite, built around 1416. It was destroyed during the French Revolution in 1794.

The church is designed in a neoclassical style with a basilica plan. It has a neoclassical facade and a neo-Tuscan bell tower that is 26 meters high. Inside, the nave is divided by six stone columns and lit by 14 windows, while the choir receives light from two beautiful windows and a lantern. The interior of the church is decorated with beautiful stucco decorations illustrating the Immaculate Conception, as well as stained glass windows depicting various names of the Virgin Mary.
