"The church of Longroy is very poor, his nave of the seventeenth century was reworked in 1760, the choir is the rude twelfth century.
At the top of the nave are two rather curious wooden altarpieces, with sixteenth-century canopies shading the altars of the Blessed Virgin and Saint Nicholas.
Plan lying to a ship. A single nave ending with a flat chevet. The whole is covered with a slate roof. A brick steeple dominates the facade and its entrance gable. Drilled with shades, he is wearing a slate ax roof. "

"L'église de Longroy est bien pauvre, sa nef du XVIIème siècle a été retravaillée en 1760, le choeur est du grossier XIIème siècle.
Au haut de la nef sont deux rétables en bois assez curieux, avec baldaquins du XVIème siècle ombrageants les autels de la Sainte-Vierge et de Saint-Nicolas.
Plan allongé à un vaisseau. Une nef unique terminée par un chevet plat. L'ensemble est couvert d'une toiture en ardoise. Un clocher en brique domine la façade et son pignon d'entrée. Percé d'abat-sons, il est coiffé d'un toit en hache en ardoise."
