Already existing, it served as a new church when the population was transferred to this town around 1678. It was surrounded by a cemetery (moved in the 19th century) closed to the north by the hospital house, which still exists and together with the church forms a very interesting complex with a medieval past. The old cemetery had an entrance porch which today serves as the front porch of the church. The entrance porch was created later. The sanctuary vault has 7 ribs. The keystone of the vault has 8 branches carved and finished in shamrock. The 3 windows are mullioned in the style of the 15th c. Around 1600, we note the description of 2 side chapels. The choir was probably closed. The stained glass windows are by a contemporary Landes artist. On the north wall of the church one notices a wooden cross Christ from an uncertain period.

Originally, this church, dedicated to St Martin, had a single nave. It was redesigned in the 19th century with the addition of the south side nave and later a front porch. It bears the imprint of the 15th c. with its watchtower and is composed of 2 naves. At the foot of the bell tower is an old interior doorway whose archivolt is decorated with leaning palmettes featuring oak leaves, which could be related to a late Gothic style. On the north façade of the bell tower there is a square opening that seems to have been an observation post. On the south side of the tower, there is a four-lobed opening that was used for surveillance. Inside there is a 17th century standing virgin made of gilded wood, she holds the baby Jesus on her sleeping arm while he is usually awake.

The church is in Romanesque style and probably from the 16th century with a single nave. Inside is the bust of Mommolin (a local saint). The bell tower has openings that seem to be loopholes. In the porch there is a beam with strange motifs, perhaps a specimen of popular art from the 15th century. The walls of this building are made of garluche. Next to the church is the fountain Sainte Ruffine to treat impetigo, acne and eczema.

On the way to Probert's manor at the end of the road is the statue of the Virgin of Maylis (mother of the lilies) installed in a dummy tree trunk. It is said to have been made after the passage of a mission.

Set in a beautiful airial of oak and plane trees, one of which is said to be the second largest plane tree in the Landes region, Manoir de Probert is an authentic Landes country manor dating from the late 17th century. Paul Déroulède, a political scientist during the Third Republic, lived here with his sister in the 1930s. And more recently, until 1997, to Paul Sargos, Nobel Peace Prize winner and co-creator of Médecins sans Frontières.

The Saint Eutrope fountain, patron saint of the Sainte-Eulalie spring, cures leg diseases and cripples. Located 100 meters from the church towards the road to CEL, near a large house, it is easily spotted among the reeds. A statue of Saint-Eutrope, which is now in the village church, originally watched over this fountain. Eutrope was the first bishop of Saintes, and it was traditional to bring to him children with stunted or weak legs, as well as the crippled. Some Jacquets stopped at the miraculous fountain, no doubt hoping to relieve the pain of their long walk.
