Surprises
The Sainte-Croix Chapel, part of which goes back to the 16th century, is the oldest religious monument in the municipality.
In 1616 the oratory, since composed of a nave with a three-part apse and a roof surmounted by an elegant steeple, was enlarged.
An unusual little chapel... with an upside-down stone…
Built in 1740 and restored in 1774, the Notre-Dame au Bois chapel, a single-nave sanctuary with a three-part apse, replaced, according to tradition, a little chapel on the front of which a stone bore the inscription:
A little hamlet bordering the Charleroi to Brussels canal, Fauquez guards in its heights an unusual little chapel built in 1929 of plaques of marbrite, juxtaposed so as to create a unique play of colours. Now turned into a residence, crêperie, reception hall and theatre, this 'chapel' never fails to make an impression. Make the detour: you will never see chapels as you did before your trip to Fauquez!
Who could have guessed that in this chapel nestled in the heart of Ittre are 10 works by Marthe Donas, an internationally renowned Belgian artist...
If you like old baptismal fonts, take a detour to Saint Géry Church!
The Saint Renelde Well could be considered, all in all, fairly mundane… if it didn’t contain water reputed to be miraculous.
You're not mistaken; this is in fact an authentic Breton cross, a very rare monument in our region, that you will see on approaching this very pretty little rural church!
In the heart of this village you will find the Saint Pierre Church. A church like any other? Yes, except that it houses a remarkable organ produced by the famous manufacturer Van Peteghem. If you are inquisitive enough to enter you will find other rarities.
Inspired by the forms and the savoir-faire of Le Corbusier, this church, built by Swiss architect Jean-Marie Ellenberger, is a real curiosity.
