Eglise du Très-Saint-Sacrement

The Très-Saint-Sacrement church was built in 1904 on a plot of land bordering the rue de Philadelphie. Once the structural work was completed, the interior fittings were entrusted to Delgutte, who built the vaults, dressed the columns, and made the communion benches and baptismal font. The inauguration took place on December 8, 1908. The church underwent a number of transformations under successive parish priests. On June 22, 1944, the 1757th day of the Second World War, a bomb completely destroyed the church. The next day, the parish hall became a temporary church open for worship. It wasn't until May 10, 1953 that, thanks to a great deal of dedication, the present church was finally completed.
The building has a modern style, with brickwork and a concrete framework. The stained glass windows are not figurative, but are designed to catch the sun's rays as the day progresses.
Inside, the cross weighs 150kg, and the altar is made of wood from the forests on the banks of the Loire.
Built by Ets Gonzalès, the organ has 28 stops.
The oak statue of the Virgin was carved by Fernand Weerts, a sculptor from Mons en Baroeul who, with his wife, also a sculptor, has created numerous works for the Lille diocese.
