Saint Martin's church (Ekkergem)

Local name: Sint-Martinuskerk (Ekkergem)

The first mention of a Romanesque temple located here dates back to 941 - the current Gothic building was built in the 16th century. The church has a characteristic, leaning tower. The reason for the deformation was probably the wet wood used to erect the supporting structure, which deformed after drying.
