About this building

The St Martin d'Audruicq church corresponds to the "Hallekerque" architectural style very common in Flanders. It is made up of three parallel vessels. The naves are made of sandy bricks typical of the region, with Gothic style openings. The choir with a square apse, added at the end of the 19th century, is built of white stone. To the bell tower of 1703 was added, in 1772, an octagonal turret to access the bells cast in Douai by Drouot in 1878.
