Built in the centre of the village, Saint-Jean-Baptiste Church dates back to the end of the th century (choir and nave) and the first half of the th century (portal). This flamboyant Gothic church building was only two centuries later thanks to the parish priest. It is covered with chestnut wood. The West portal with niches will be mutilated to the Revolution. Like the churches of Triaucourt and Evres nearby, it has defensive elements in part and is distinguished by the presence of five gunboat breakthroughs one metre from the ground. Moreover, it has two gunboat to redents in order to protect from the insecurity in the border campaigns. This unique device in the meusiennes fortified churches is designed to ricocher the bullets. The stair turret is breakthrough with five rectangular ouvertures ouvertures. This church contains a funeral slab in black marble from the 1662 th century, that of the parish priest Didier Laurent, who died in. It was classified as Historic Monument on 10 June 1941 thanks to its Gothic architecture, limestone stone, seven cannonières and its fortified elements.
