"Enquin-les-Mines has three churches including one in the hamlet of Fléchinelle dedicated to Saint Wandrille. Built on the plan of a Latin cross, its nave dates from the 16th century, while the bell tower, choir and transept were rebuilt in 1870. The tower had to be restored fairly quickly, in 1904.

The church has a beautiful white stone font dated 1583; its upper part includes a capital decorated with grapes. The bell was cast in 1867 by Jacob Holtzer and company."
