Church of Our Lady of the Assumption (Olloy-sur-Viroin)

Highlight • Religious Site

Olloy-sur-Viroin is a town and submunicipality of the Belgian municipality of Viroinval. Olloy-sur-Viroin is located in the province of Namur. The Église Notre-Dame de l'Assomption, parish church in neo-Gothic style, built in the nineteenth century.
The building was restored at the beginning of the twentieth century.
The building has three naves, a non-projecting transept and a square choir. The tower is independent of the rest. We had the impression of discovering a belfry.

Scenic RAVeL Descent in Parc Naturel Viroin Hermeton

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

By mountain bike from Olloy, take the GR along the stream by taking the path that runs alongside the first ponds on the right, until it goes up towards the ravel.
My advice: do not try to pass the 2 small footbridges by bike :-)

Arrived at the road which crosses the ravel before Oignies, turn right towards Regniessart, and turn right in the hollow to go down again towards Olloy on nice single tracks. Preferably with a GPS so as not to miss the place where you have to cross the stream.

Saint Bartholomew Church, Oignies-en-Thiérache

Highlight • Religious Site

And again in Belgium. Oignies-en-Thiérache.

We are in the land of the old Principality of Liège. The municipality of the Ardennes department was incorporated into the province of Namur in 1815.

This village was called the "village of the widows" because the men worked there in the slate quarries, the dust of which causes the same disease as that of the miner, silicosis.
