St. Joseph's Church

The church of Saint-Éloi-et-Saint-Martin is a Gothic-style church whose construction began in 1523 on a former church whose 13th-century bell tower has survived. The church was sacked during the Revolution and its 16th century stained glass windows were destroyed. They were rebuilt identically in the second half of the 19th century. Closed from 2000 to 2009 because of its dilapidated state, the church was restored and in 2009 it received its additional dedication to Saint Eloi.

This church was built in 1547 at the request of Charles the Fifth. It was destroyed in 1918 and rebuilt between 1924 and 1927 by the architect Cordonnier. In neo-Gothic style, it is built in brick and a little stone, and thus refers to the Flemish Gothic brick churches. This neo-Flemish style is characteristic of the architect Louis Marie Cordonnier, and there were many reconstructions in the region after the First World War. The church is not purely neo-Gothic or neo-Flemish, it incorporates many references to French classical Gothic, and above all it gives pride of place to modern techniques such as the metal frames that structure the vaults.

The Church of Sainte-Austreberthe in Bours has an elongated plan. The nave consists of four bays and the bedside is flat.
