Church located in the heart of the city, between Lille Flandres station and the Grand-Place.

In the heart of town, between Lille Flandres Station and the Grand Place, this church is one of Lille's jewels. Erigée between the xive and the late nineteenth century, in a Gothic, neo-Gothic style, it impresses with the size of its nef, its choir and its transepts, not forgetting its wide facade, with the bell to the endless arrow, planted in the middle. The church houses an exceptional collection of works from ancient convents in the city. Its majestic stained glass windows date from the end of the nineteenth century and are the work of the painter-verrier Charles Gaudelet (some glassware have been restored following their destruction during the bombing of the First and Second World Wars. Today, Saint-Maurice Church is one of the three parochial bell towers of Parish Saint-Eubert. It hosts exhibitions and cultural meetings. It is also a haven of peace in the city, where we stop to rest, pray, reconcile with God.

En plus de proposer des offices atypiques et conviviaux, l’église Saint-Maurice est réputée pour sa beauté. Un passage obligé pour les personnes en transit à la gare !

Jolie église
Cette église est impressionnante par ses dimensions. Elle était cependant un peu vide et le froid de l'hiver aidant, elle semblait peu accueillante.

Superbe et monumentale église-halle de style gothique et néo-gothique un peu oubliée des visiteurs.

L’eglise Saint Maurice impressionne souvent par ses dimensions. C’est un des joyaux de notre belle ville de Lille. Elle présente également un plan particulier, typique des églises flamandes. C’est ce que l’on appelle une église hall qui se caractérise par ses 5 nefs parallèles.

Entre la gare et la Grand place, cette vieille église restaurée vers 1860 en gothique flamboyant est souvent prise à tort pour la cathédrale à cause de sa haute flèche effilée.Elle a pour plan celui des églises flamandes "la hallekerke". Rien de vraiment sensationnel mais mérite une visite pour son architecture intérieure.
