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.

Rebuilt in 1792, the church was partly destroyed during the revolution after seeing its furniture piled up and burned inside; it is said that only the walls remained. Its patron saint is St Quentin. The church was purchased by the son Aimable Billot de Lattre on 7 Floréal year 9, (May 7, 1801) from the Fabrique, for the sum of 58,300 francs. The bell tower, although restored in recent years, still appears to be the bell tower of the old church which dates back to a very remote period. It bears the stamp of the 13th century. The current bell dates from 1890 (700kg) It is called Marie, was baptized by Mr. LEFIN, dean of Avesnes-le-Comte, and had as godfather Mr. Brazier, Mayor, and as godmother Me Desaulty. As a relic, the church firstly has a considerable relic (femur bone) of St Quentin, a gift made by the church of St Quentin to Mr. Flajollet priest of Lattre at the beginning of this century as well as a fairly important relic from St Vaast, one from St Arnaud and one from St Wulgan. There was once a very popular pilgrimage in honor of St Quentin. It is difficult to assign the time when this pilgrimage began. But as far back as the church's account registers go, that is to say in the year 1570, there is question of the income made by the sale to pilgrims of coupons to burn and images on the days of the feasts of St Quentin.
