Culture and History

The Chapelle Saint-Sulpice au cimetière is associated with a pilgrimage considered to be half secular and half religious. The small Chapelle Saint-Martin d'Hymmeville dates from the 16th century and is now owned by the municipality. Its lower walls are made of flint and stone; the upper section was raised with bricks in the 18th century.

The former beet-processing plant was built around 1873 for S.A. de la Sucrerie d'Abbeville. The juice extracted at the former beet-processing plant was transported to Abbeville through a pipeline. The former beet-processing plant ceased operations at the end of the third quarter of the 20th century.

The church in Quesnoy-le-Montant contains a memorial window commemorating the two world wars. It was designed by Pierre Vidal and installed by Pierre Pasquier.

According to an inscription on the coat of arms above the gatehouse, Ferme d'Hymmeville dates back to 1673. The chasse-roues made it easier for carts to pass through and protected the walls of the exceptional farm entrance.
