Very pretty valley, quiet road

The Bras de Bronne, a tributary of the Canche that crosses the city, once served as a natural border. While part of the village was in Artois, the bell tower was in Boulogne: the parish came under the diocese of Boulogne. The patron saint is the founder of the neighboring diocese, Firmin, first bishop of Amiens. In the choir is a beautiful effigy of the saint, sculpted in the 16th century. Marles-Sur-Canche and its parish church dedicated to Saint Firmin contain treasures such as the statue of Saint Nicolas from the 16th century, the bronze bells from 1805 or the Altar from the 18th century. Despite its humble appearance, its history is set in stone. The building combines a sober nave with a beautiful choir in Flamboyant Gothic style, more slender. This contrast between the two sides is astonishing. The Saint Firmin church is thus strongly marked by the architectural heritage of the 15th century. The Marlois are attached to their church which, despite regular work since 1812 and the numerous renovations, shows a worrying state of health, visible by the numerous deteriorations: cracks, detachment of the cladding, broken stones, crumbling, weakened masonry of the buttresses, decaying structural wood.

The Église Saint-Omer is a church in Estrée, a commune in the Pas-de-Calais department in the Hauts-de-France region of northern France. The church was built in 1869 according to plans by the architect Clovis Normand from Hesdin. This chalk construction is inspired by the medieval style of the 13th century. It consists of a front bell tower surmounted by a spire, an elongated nave and a choir with three sides. The furniture is in keeping with the architecture and was made by local craftsmen such as sculptor Victor Morel from Bernieulles and furniture maker Jean-Baptiste Durant from Recques-sur-Course. The church was listed as a historical monument in 1908.

Inxent is a small commune in the Pas-de-Calais department of France. Inxent is located in the valley of the river Course, about 8 km north of Montreuil-sur-Mer on the D127 road. The village is considered one of the most beautiful villages in Nord Pas-de-Calais and can be discovered during a quiet walk along the water of the valley of the Course.

The Église Saint-Wulmer is a church in Parenty, a commune in the Pas-de-Calais department in the Hauts-de-France region of northern France. The church is located on Rue De L'église in Parenty. The church is dedicated to Saint-Wulmer, a monk of Haumont Abbey in Hainaut3. The parish is confirmed in 1190 by a papal bull confirming the tithe of Parenty to the canons of Thérouanne. The church consists of a nave and an older choir, separated by a central tower. The arms of Jean de Blosset, baron of Doudeauville, who held the seigneury from 1513 to 1536, allow us to date the choir vault to the first third of the 16th century4. The tower bears the year of construction “1614”, but the first level was only vaulted in 1642. It shows elements of defense, including the remains of a bretèche above the gate. The nave was built several years after the tower, as evidenced by a date engraved in the ceiling.
