More about this church
Description
This neo-Gothic cross-shaped church was built from natural stone blocks. The façade is flanked by an adjoining tower over 50 metres high, topped by a pointed roof above the bell tower.
The foundation stone was laid by Mgr Martin-Hubert Rutten on 13 December 1903, and the church was completed in 1905. The church is dedicated to the patron saint of Victor-Joseph Doutreloux, Bishop Rutten's predecessor: Saint Victor, martyr of the Catholic Church. It is also dedicated to Saint-Léonard, the patron saint of prisoners.
