Eglise Saint-Christophe

Description

Delvist romansk kirke med et beskyttet kor og en imponerende statue af St-Christophe Denne smukke, stenkirke ligger i midten af byen og skiller sig ud på grund af dens massive tårn, som blev genopbygget med succes i 1661 og 1733. Interiøret blev restaureret i slutningen af det 19. århundrede af den ghentiske arkitekt Van Assche og indeholder nogle bemærkelsesværdige stykker. Den enorme, polykrome statue af Christophe – denne kirkes skytshelgen – springer straks i øjnene. Den er hele 3,40 m høj og er skåret ud af ét stykke træ. Det oprindeligt gotiske kor er lovligt beskyttet. Se også døbefonten og prædikestolen (1688). Desuden ejer kirken en ekstraordinær, moderne komposition af kunstneren Costa Lefkochir: i stedet for den traditionelle korsvej, ofte inspireret af smerte og sorg, ser vi her en original 'livsvej', hvor nogle vigtige øjeblikke fra Jesu liv er afbildet.
