Anstaing between Mélantois and Pévèle

Anstaing lies on the limestone plain of Mélantois, on the edge of Pévèle. The landscape gives the town a clear setting for a trip in which you can combine nature and local culture as distinct focal points. Those who choose a holiday apartment in Anstaing can therefore enjoy a type of travel that focuses not only on individual sights, but also on the atmosphere of a rural setting.

Church and Saint-Laurent sites

The present-day church of Anstaing dates from 1732; its red-brick side aisles were added in 1871. The Lemaistre family tomb slab in the Église Saint-Laurent in Anstaing is made of white marble set in a carved and gilded wooden frame. At the church, the red bricks of the side aisles meet the white marble and the carved, gilded wood of the tomb slab. For those interested in culture, exploration begins with the church building, its furnishings and the traditions surrounding the fountain. Such details give a stay a specific cultural focus and invite you to pay closer attention to architectural history and design when visiting the town.

The Saint-Laurent Fountain behind the church is considered healing for burns and skin diseases. Its water is untreated groundwater and is not intended for drinking.
