SAINT-PIERRE CHURCH
St. Peter's Church is the oldest monument in the city, with a central nave dominated by a monumental pulpit.
Saint-Pierre church, with its 62-metre spire erected in 1729 by the parish priest of Lau, is the town's oldest monument, dating back to 1105. The lower church, which extends from the bell tower to the western façade, was built in the 18th century and has undergone several transformations. The central nave is dominated by a monumental pulpit that appears to be supported by a cornucopia, and is adorned with bas-reliefs representing the church fathers. The rococo pulpit, carved in Danish oak by two Tieltois, the Debosschere brothers, was completed in 1857.
