Onze-Lieve-Vrouwekerk, Gothic church in Pamele district, Oudenaarde, Belgium.

Onze-Lieve-Vrouwekerk is a Gothic church in the Pamele district of Oudenaarde, on the right bank of the Schelde. Built of grey Tournai limestone, it has a long side wall divided by buttresses into bays with tall pointed windows, a polygonal stair turret, and a square tower with a steep slate spire and clock face. A lower wing extends to the right.

Construction began in 1234 under master builder Arnulf van Binche, commissioned by Arnulf IV, lord of Oudenaarde and Pamele. This project reflected the ambitions of local nobility to establish a prominent religious building in the region.

The building displays Scheldegotik style, blending Romanesque and Gothic elements that are visible in its limestone details and structural choices. This architectural blend shaped how the community experienced religious spaces during the medieval period.

The building undergoes regular structural inspections because of its location on marshy soil near the Schelde river. These checks help ensure the structure remains stable despite the challenging ground conditions.

A stone in the choir wall records that Arnold van Binche was the master builder, the earliest builder in Flanders known by name. The original memorial of 1835 now lies hidden behind a bronze copy. The plaque is unusual for its era, when masons were rarely credited.
