"Kain is een dorp in de Belgische provincie Henegouwen en een deelgemeente van de Waalse stad Doornik.

In 1905 werden de dominicanen gedwongen Frankrijk te verlaten; zij vestigden in het klooster Le Saulchoir in Kain hun studium generale. Hier studeerden onder meer de theologen Edward Schillebeeckx en Jan van der Ploeg.

Kain was een zelfstandige gemeente, tot die bij de gemeentelijke herindeling van 1977 toegevoegd werd aan de gemeente Doornik."
