Church of Saint-Martin d'Hallines

The Church of Saint-Omer church is located in Setques, in the Hauts-de-France region. The Gothic style building reflects the high monuments after the wars of the sixteenth century. The flat chevet of the choir and the lower level of the tower date from the late sixteenth or early seventeenth century. In the 18th century, restorations were made, as the church was rebuilt in 1863, on the same foundations, but with buttresses.

Church of Saint-Maurice is in the centre of the village, at the junction of five roads, and has two volumes of different heights. The lower one is the nave ; the other, higher and with no buttresses, with the air of a massive keep, has, in its lower level, a sanctuary which is perhaps Romanesque.

Construction started in 1052. The work was not completed until 1486 with the erection of the spire of the transept crossing. The cathedral was closed to worship during the French Revolution: it was then transformed into a fodder store. Unlike many churches in France, it did not suffer from vandalism, looting or destruction.
