Sint-Bertinuskerk, Gothic church in Poperinge, Belgium
The Sint-Bertinuskerk features three naves of equal height and width, forming a hall church design typical of Flemish religious architecture.
Following fires in 1419 and 1436, the church underwent reconstruction in 1450, transforming it from a Romanesque chapel into a Gothic structure.
The church houses a magnificent 1710 pulpit from the Dominican monastery in Bruges, decorated with representations of church fathers and Christian theology.
The church maintains regular opening hours for visitors and contains 47 bells in its carillon, with weights ranging from 50 to 500 kilograms.
The late Renaissance rood screen displays detailed carvings of Jesus and the apostles, incorporating elements preserved through multiple historical conflicts.
