History: Called "Chapelle Cokelaer", it owes its name to François COKELAER, farmer in the Hamlet of Bihamel, municipal councillor and also milk merchant, he lived on the farm next door, which was erected in recognition of protection during the First World War. The architecture: Architecturally, the chapel is very simple. In brick, of rectangular plan with flat bottom, covered with tiles, only the facade presents a slight monumentality: a large bay in broken arch, underlined by another arch at the level of the tympanum hosts the entrance door to a single leaf under a glazed impost, a reduced rectangular gable and, on both sides, two square pilasters decorated with a cross and surmounted by two pyramids. A cross crowns the gable. An oculus pierces the bedside. The interior is sober; an altar in carpentry painted in white and sky blue is surmounted by a statue of Our Lady of Lourdes. At the foot of the altar is a statue of Bernadette de Soubirous praying. In 2021, in partnership with our
