Main sights

Temple of Petit-Wasmes

In the first half of 1800, after recognising freedom of worship to Protestant communities, institutions founded the Union of Evangelical Protestant Churches of the Kingdom of Belgium.[2] Vincent Van Gogh wanted to support pastors in their worshipping, but he never had the chance, since he left Borinage in 1880 and the Temple was only built in 1897.[3]
