The St. John the Baptist Church, better known locally as St. John's Church, was built between 1836 and 1839 in a neoclassical style, incorporating the old tower from the 15th century. A first chapel was founded on this site earlier in 1268. In 2003 the church was withdrawn from worship. For centuries, until 1979, the church was served by the Norbertine fathers from the abbey in Tongerlo. These so-called white people resided in a parsonage on Molenstraat, a building that is now used as a Tongerlohuys heritage centre.
