The parish church of Saint-Amand was built in 1862 in brick and limestone. The current church replaces the old church, which was located in the current cemetery.
It consists of a front facade, a nave flanked by side aisles with two bays, a transept and a choir with two straight bays and a flat choir closure in the Romanesque style. Typical are the colonnades and the rosettes on the facade of the tower and on the facades of the transept and the choir.
Reinforcing the homogeneity of the building , the plastered and whitewashed interior has a three-register arcaded facade under groin vaults on transoms, as well as furniture in the same style.
The church furnishings include: a painting from the late 16th or early 17th century (Adoration of the Shepherds, Flemish school); a 16th century Christ on the Cross ; wooden panels from former choir stalls (18th century); a stone baptismal font probably from the 18th century; a white marble epitaph of Pierre Evrad de Boulogne and his family (1669 - 1686).
The former presbytery, privately owned, dates from the second half of the 18th century.
