Acosse / Achose / Åcosse / Coche

A communication to BSI from Pol Herman (e-mail of 22 November 2025) informs: "The church is located near a large farm, called "ferme du château." Perhaps a castle chapel or a "proprietary chapel" (eigenkirche) is the origin of the current building. The patron saint could hint to an early foundation. In the 9th century, a church belonging to the diocese of Liège is mentioned in Acosse. The current church contains the tombstone of Maroie di Hut, who died in 1343. Other burials in the church date from 1580, 1715, and 1752. In 1428, Georges de Molino was the parish priest of Acosse. In 1552, the court declared the church of Acosse a branch of the mother church of Meeffe. Baptismal registers exist from 1677. A new church was constructed in 1773. in 1804, Acosse was incorporated into the parish of Hannêche, thus becoming an auxiliary chapel. In 1882, the diocese confirmed that the oratory was not officially recognized. In 1902, a new church was built to replace the one from 1773. No information yet regarding a baptismal font in the present church." No entry found for any font in BALaT KIK-IRPA for the church in Acosse.
