[Nl] In vroegere tijden waren de kerkhoven meestal rond de kerk gelegen. In vele landelijke dorpen in Vlaanderen is er nog zulk kerkhof tevinden naast te kerk. Dit gaat terug van de tijd wanneer de kerken werden gebouwd, tussen 16de en 19 de eeuw. Sommige kerken kwamen vroeger tot stand. De huidige kerk werd in 1156 gebouwd.
