Activity itinerary

Lille

  • 4h
This tour is 8 km and has over 30 stories about everything you will pass. Not just dull facts, but real stories, legends en fun facts collected by a local guide. Some examples of highlights are below...

Cathedrale de la Treille (Pass by)

The Notre-Dame de la Treille Cathedral in Lille, with its impressive modern facade made of marble and steel, stands out as a remarkable piece of architecture, deviating from the traditional Gothic style. Construction began in the 19th century, but it wasn’t until 1999 that the unique facade, designed by Pierre-Louis Carlier and Ladislas Kinossian, was completed.

Porte de Paris (Pass by)

The Porte de Paris is a magnificent triumphal arch in Lille, built at the end of the 17th century in honour of Louis XIV and his conquest of the city. This iconic monument, richly adorned with sculptures and ornaments, marks one of Lille's key gateways and exudes grandeur.

Palais Rihour (Pass by)

Rihour Palace in Lille is an impressive historical landmark, renowned for its Gothic architecture and rich history. Originally built in the 15th century by Philip the Good as a residence for the Dukes of Burgundy, the palace now houses Lille’s tourist office.

Westfield Euralille (Pass by)

Euralille, an iconic complex in the heart of Lille, is known for its futuristic architecture and modern allure. Opened in the 1990s, Euralille includes shopping centers, offices, and several hotels. The striking buildings, such as the Lille Tower and the Convention Centre, were designed by renowned architects and provide a stark contrast to Lille's historic old town.

Musee Hospice Comtesse (Pass by)

Located in the heart of Lille’s old town, this historical gem offers visitors a glimpse into centuries of French and Flemish heritage. Originally founded in the 13th century by Countess Jeanne of Flanders, this former hospital now houses an extensive collection of art, furniture, and artefacts. The building itself, with its vaulted ceilings, Gothic arches, and serene courtyard, is a testament to medieval craftsmanship.

Theatre Sebastopol (Pass by)

Just a stone’s throw from the central station, Sébastopol Theatre is an iconic building in the heart of Lille. This theatre, which has been attracting audiences since the early 20th century, is renowned for its beautiful architecture and intimate atmosphere. From opera to ballet and from concerts to plays, Sébastopol Theatre offers a diverse range of performances.
