Culture and history

The Church of Saint Thomas Becket is fully protected as a French historic monument; it was classified by a decree dated 6 May 2015. It originated from a chapel built by Thomas de Boissy.

Today, only the residential building, two pavilions and the gateway of the Ferme des Tourelles remain. The Ferme des Tourelles is a surviving remnant of the Fief d’Artois. The municipal washhouse is considered evidence of industrialisation and social change in the 19th century.
