Gouy-lez-Pieton is a part of the Belgian municipality of Courcelles, located in Wallonia in Hainaut province.
It was a fully fledged municipality before the fusion of the Belgian municipalities of 1977.

The Church of Saint-Martin

The original church, built during the 12th century, disappeared to make way for the current building, classified in 1961. The current and refurbished Church of Saint-Martin of Gouy-lez-Piéton was largely built in the 16th century, with a further transformation in the 18th century. Some of the church's furnishings date back to the 1600s. The surroundings of the place of worship are well maintained, with a small park behind the building. This church is the copy of the Church of Saint-Martin in Trazegnies, a village adjacent to Gouy-lez-piéton.
