The Notre-Dame church measures 37 meters in length and 19 meters in width, with a bell tower reaching 38 meters into the sky.

Built in the 11th century on Celtic sanctuary ruins predating the 6th century, the church was established by the canonesses of Andenne following Norman invasions.

The church holds funeral monuments of parish priests Jean François Galopin and Gabriel Person, along with statues of the Virgin of Pity and Saint Vincent.
