What can I do in Valenciennes?

Nicknamed “the Athens of the North”, Valenciennes has a strong cultural heritage. A former mining town, the town has since been home to the arts. The elegant Musée des Beaux Arts has superb collections from ancient times to the 20th century, notably with the second largest collection of Flemish paintings, with works by Van Dyck, Bosch, Rubens and others

Along the Escaut river, there are the last Escaut houses, half-timbered houses dating from the Middle Ages. La Bibliothèque des Jésuites is also a great place to visit, it contains the oldest known poem in the French language: la Cantilène de Sainte Eulalie. Other notable monuments: the front of the town hall, the Gothic Revival basilica Notre-Dame du Saint-Cordon or the Saint-Géry church.

Due to its strategic position, Valenciennes is an ideal town to visit Lille or Belgium. The town is just a few kilometres from the Belgian border. Mons– European capital of culture in 2015 – is nearby, as well as Charleroi or even the dynamic capital Brussels. On the French side, the Lille metropolitan area is an excellent cultural, historical and leisure outing.
