The church of St-Martin d'Artres is unique in that it houses a miniature replica of the famous grotto at Lourdes. Tombstones recall the existence of the old cemetery that once adjoined the church. The grotto was erected in 1885 as a "gift" of thanks from the family of Georges d'Haussy, a powerful local farmer and industrialist.
