Tips

Hiking

Basilica-style building on a trapezoidal plan; four bays on the east side culminating in a square choir and crowned on the south side by a massive tower. Interesting tower volume in transitional style (mid-13th century). Quartzite plinth and tuff facing. Three stories: the ground floor currently features a pointed arch arcade; the bell storey has four paired sound holes with a Romanesque column surmounted by a cube capital. The spire dates from the 17th century.

Gothic naves covered with mullioned beams or a flat ceiling; north entrance.

The church was built around 1200 in tuff stone, a type of yellow sandstone from nearby Lincent. The design of the church is somewhat unusual, a two-aisled nave with a square choir, while the tower stands on the south side of the main nave.

The block altar in tuff stone which, apart from the rosettes, shows great similarity to that of the sister church in Wezeren, is covered with a tabletop in Gobertange stone. The colourful stained glass windows are a true feast for the eyes.

Beautiful church built from old sandstone (from Lincent). The (older?) base of the tower in limestone.
