"The Saint-Martin d'Audembert church was rebuilt in Marquise stone on a sandstone flashing, on the site of the old church at the end of the 19th century, in the Neo-Gothic style of the time.

It consists of a choir with three sides, a nave with four bays and a stone bell tower sitting on the western gable. It is pierced by a portal protected by a porch little salient. The simple ogival bays were provided with stained glass windows made by M. Pasquier, master glassmaker of Amiens, according to Mr. Leclerc's decorations.

Pierre Héliot thus describes the old church in 1953: "Church demolished in 1892 and whose bell-tower, planted in the forearms to the west belonged to the end of the twelfth century, except its upper sitting which accused a more advanced time. »"

" L'église Saint-Martin d'Audembert a été rebâtie en pierre de Marquise sur un solin de grès, à l'emplacement de l'ancienne église à la fin du XIXe siècle, dans le goût néogothique de l'époque.

Elle se compose d'un chœur à trois pans, d'une nef de quatre travées et d'un clocher en pierre assis sur le pignon occidental. Celui-ci est percé d'un portail protégé d'un porche peu saillant. Les baies ogivales simples ont été dotées de vitraux réalisés par M. Pasquier, maître-verrier d'Amiens, d'après des décors de M. Leclerc.

Pierre Héliot décrit ainsi l'ancienne église en 1953 : « Église démolie en 1892 et dont le clocher, planté en avant-corps à l’ouest appartenait à la fin du XIIe siècle, sauf ses assises supérieures qui accusaient une époque plus avancée. » "
