Listed as a Historic Monument, the Notre-Dame church is a very interesting building that expresses some very characteristic features of the architecture of the Norman School, particularly in the Gothic choir attributed to the 13th century. The bell tower-porch has a late 15th century portal with an ogival arcade that frames an openwork tympanum. Above the portal is built a flamboyant style rose window. The nave, flanked by two side aisles, was built in the 13th century, but was extensively remodeled in the 16th and 17th centuries. It has an interior elevation on 3 levels. All that remains of the primitive Romanesque church is the base of the old lantern tower. Visible only from the outside, it is located at the crossing of the transept. The church has some singularities: -The sepulchre dating from the 15th century, representing Christ stretched out on a shroud, Nicodemus, Joseph of Arimathea, Saint John the Evangelist, the Virgin Mary and Mary Magdalene. -The stained glass windows are attributed for the most part to Édouard Didron, a great Parisian master glassmaker.

Building with a Latin cross plan. A nave intersected by a transept. Ogival bays and buttresses punctuate the elevations. A bell tower precedes the nave. The whole is covered with a slate roof.

Made from cow's milk, Neufchâtel is the oldest Norman cheese. Designed in the Pays de Bray, more precisely near Neufchâtel-en-Bray, its appellation has been protected by a controlled designation of origin since 1969. Its heart shape has been held since the Hundred Years' War. Normandy was then English, it seems that the young girls of the region, who had fallen in love with English soldiers, molded the Neufchâtel into the shape of a heart to declare their love for them! In Nesle-Hodeng, you will find 3 producers from Neufchâtel: La Ferme des Fontaines, the Alleaume and Brianchon cheese factories.

The church of Bouelles, dedicated to Saint Martin, is in its current volume a construction of the 16th and 17th centuries, on an older structure from the Romanesque period. It was remodeled in the 19th century. The building is listed as a historic monument.
