Cartignies

Highlight • Other

Municipality in the Vallée de la Helpe Mineur and the Parc naturel régional de l'Avesnois. The town square, the church, the town hall and the war memorial are all on a handkerchief.
The village also has about forty chapels made of blue stone. These demarcate the Avesnois and Thiéerache and are spread along roads and paths, in forests or in wall niches. They were built to ask a favor, to thank heaven for something or to confirm a social position. They have existed since 1550. The chapel often consists of a narrow shaft surmounted by a beautifully fenced niche and a larger crown piece. There used to be polychrome wooden statues in the niches.
