The Church of Mar Sarkis and Bakhos is the most important historic building in Ehden, and one of the most significant Maronite sites in northern Lebanon. The present structure incorporates very old stonework — parts of the building date back to the Byzantine era — though it has been rebuilt and expanded several times over the centuries. The church sits at the heart of the old village on a terrace overlooking the valley.
Inside, the decoration reflects centuries of Maronite artistic tradition: carved wood, painted icons, and inscriptions in Syriac-Aramaic, the liturgical language still used in Maronite services. The church is active, and services draw the village community. Even outside of service times, the building is worth visiting for the stonework and the views from the terrace. The annual feast day in October brings a pilgrimage from across the region.
