Collégiale Saint-Pierre d'Aire-sur-la-Lys, Gothic church in Aire-sur-la-Lys, France.
The Saint-Pierre collegiate church spans 105 meters in length, 40 meters in width, and features a 65-meter tower built with stone and brick materials.
Construction began in 1492 following the deterioration of a Romanesque church from 1166, with completion of the current structure occurring in 1634.
The church maintains the tradition of Notre-Dame Panetière, commemorating the 1213 grain delivery during a siege through annual processions.
Visitors can observe the 1633 organ, restored in 1986, along with religious artworks including a reconstructed 1510 statue of Notre-Dame Panetière.
A cannonball from 1710 was discovered beneath a stained glass window during restoration work in 2018, evidencing the building's wartime history.
