There is no certainty about the date of the construction of the church. The first mention of the building dates from 1183. There is also a reference from the 13th century. Back then, the church was called Onze-Lieve-Vrouwekerk (Our Lady’s Church). The worship of Saint-Martinus, to whom the church is called today, started in the 14th century. There are indications that the building burned down in 1360 and was destroyed again in 1380. Because of religious quarrels and economic problems from the 16th century onwards, it took more than 150 years to build the church as it is now. In the end, the construction stopped unfinished in the 17th century. At the moment, resaurations are going on: the exterior is under construction from 2003-2020, the interior from 2020-2027 and the art objects from 2017-2027.
