The Church of St. Augustine (Église Saint-Augustin, Sint-Augustinuskerk) is a Catholic parish church in Forest, a municipality of Brussels, Belgium. It is dedicated to Saint Augustine. Designed by the architects Léon Guiannotte and André Watteyne in Art Deco style, and built between 1932 and 1935, it is one of three major churches in Brussels made of reinforced concrete (the other two are the Basilica of the Sacred Heart in Koekelberg and the Church of St. John the Baptist in Molenbeek-Saint-Jean). The building received protected status on 8 August 1988. The church is located on the Place de l'Altitude Cent/Hoogte Honderdplein (a square named due to its altitude of one hundred metres above sea level), not far from Duden Park and the Chaussée d'Alsemberg/Alsembergse Steenweg. This site is served by the bus and tram stop Altitude Cent/Hoogte Honderd (on lines 18 and 48).
