< Located at the exit of the village of Inghem towards Helfaut, it was built by Victoire Macaux in 1878 as a sign of eternal gratitude to Our Lady of Lourdes.

Article

" The small chapel dedicated to Notre-Dame-de-Lourdes, located at the entrance of Inghem, Bellinghem's delegated commune, will be rehabilitated.

The municipality acquired the building for the symbolic euro, from private owners who could no longer maintain it. The vegetation has taken possession of the place, we hardly see the chapel behind the trees that hide it. "Safeguarding our heritage"

"A company has proposed to restore the roof which has partially collapsed, says the mayor, Françoise Vasseur. It will take a lot of good will to restore it completely. We want to try to maintain and safeguard our heritage, it is important for small towns. »

L'Article

"La petite chapelle dédiée à Notre-Dame-de-Lourdes, située à l’entrée d’Inghem, commune déléguée de Bellinghem, va être réhabilitée.

La commune a acquis l’édifice pour l’euro symbolique, auprès des propriétaires privés qui ne pouvaient plus l’entretenir. La végétation a pris possession des lieux, on ne voit presque plus la chapelle derrière les arbres qui la cachent. « Sauvegarder notre patrimoine »

« Une entreprise a proposé de restaurer la toiture qui s’est en partie effondrée, indique le maire, Françoise Vasseur. Il faudra beaucoup de bonne volonté pour la restaurer complètement. Nous voulons essayer d’entretenir et sauvegarder notre patrimoine, c’est important pour les petites communes. » "
