Highlight • Religious Site
In 1521 it was restored using stones from Shechem.
In 1715 the tower was in a dilapidated state and repair work was being carried out.
Between 1799 and 1802 the church was closed during the French occupation.
Repair work was carried out in 1823, 1824, 1874, 1878 and 1886.
In 1860, the completely dilapidated tower was demolished and replaced by a new tower, the current one.
In 1897 the church was restored.
In 2000 the organ was placed under monument protection.

Heers Castle
Highlight • Castle
Charles the Bold and his troops destroyed this gem after their victory at the Battle of Brustem in 1467.
The castle was rebuilt in 1500. It was again confronted with a German occupation in 1681, and subsequently fell into complete disrepair.
The government seized it in 2007 and renovation works have been underway since then.

Batsheers Church
Highlight • Religious Site
The brick building is an aisleless church built in a sober, classical-baroque style and consists of an extended, flat west tower with a constricted needle spire, a single-aisled nave with three bays and a choir with a three-sided choir closure. The sacristy has been built against the east facade of the choir. The building partly has a plinth of silex and corner bands of limestone, which may be the remnants of the original Romanesque church. The building also features a brick licorice pattern under the eaves of the nave, choir and tower, brick pilasters at the corners, and arched windows in the nave framed in limestone with regular bond neg blocks and chanterelle lintels. The tower has an arched portal in the west facade with a rectangular limestone frame with two neg blocks and neuten, above which is the coat of arms of the builder Abbot Frederic Van de Panhuy
