Église Saint-Géry de Limelette, Romanesque Revival church in Limelette, Belgium.

The Saint-Géry church features a western facade with three rounded arches and a southern square tower with progressively larger openings.

The original classical church from the 17th century was destroyed during an aerial bombardment on April 20, 1944, resulting in 41 local casualties.

The church houses a Gothic tomb effigy measuring 2.70 meters, depicting Jeanne de Limelette and Knight Jean d'Ursel, discovered during 18th-century renovations.

The Saint-Géry parish operates in conjunction with Saint-Joseph parish of Rofessart under the leadership of Dean Salvator Ntibandetse.

The side facades contain three chapels with miter-arched windows, while the apse displays a large niche containing a cross.
