Church of Saint Quentin, Romanesque church on Grand-Place, Tournai, Belgium

The Church of Saint Quentin displays three distinct levels with a triangular gable and features four octagonal corner turrets surrounding a central tower.

The original structure dates from 1200, with the chancel reconstructed in the 15th century and major restoration completed in 1968 after World War II damage.

The interior houses two Late Gothic wooden sculptures from 1428, created by Jean Delemer and painted by Robert Campin, representing important religious artworks.

The church contains five bays in its nave, illuminated through large windows positioned high in the structure with a wooden ceiling design.

The axial chapel contains 15th-century polychrome vaults depicting the four evangelists with angels, separated by a marble wall from the ambulatory.
