After being closed for several years, the Saint-Omer train station has been given a facelift. The new, completely renovated building is dedicated to travelers, of course, but also to artists, craftspeople, entrepreneurs… La Station isn't just a station; it's "a space for innovation with a station inside."

Located in Saint-Omer, France, the Gare de Saint-Omer has a rich history dating back to the 19th century. The first version of the station opened on September 1, 1848, as part of the railway line from Lille to Calais. The original building was modest and located outside the city walls, between the Porte de Lyzel and the Porte du Haut-Pont. In 1904, a new, monumental station building was inaugurated, designed by the architect Clément Ligny. This building, with its neoclassical architecture, was built with high-quality materials such as blue stone from Soignies and white stone from Creil. The design reflects the grandeur of a 17th-century castle, complete with symmetrical pavilions and decorative elements such as triglyphs and pediments.

The brick façade with layers of white natural stone is five stories high and decorated with sculptures. The layout of the ambulatory and the window design refer to the Gothic style. The church was designed by Du Blocq, a Jesuit from Mons, and completed in 1629. It is notable for its high interior, the volutes on either side of the nave, and the narrow square towers on either side of the choir, a Tournai tradition. The chapel is home to the Centre d'Interprétation de l'Architecture et du Patrimoine (CIAP) du Pays d'Art et d'Histoire de Saint-Omer

The Ruines de l’Abbaye Saint-Bertin are the remains of a Benedictine monastery in Saint-Omer, France. The monastery was founded in the 7th century by the Bishop of Thérouanne under the name Abbaye de Sithiu. The ruins of this monastery are located in Saint-Omer, Rue des Ruines Saint-Bertin. They were classified as a historical monument in 1840. The buildings are now in ruins, but are open to the public. The abbey was originally dedicated to Saint Peter and later to Saint Bertin. It was one of the three most powerful abbeys in the north of the kingdom. The monastery was surrounded by a wall and bordered the rivers Aa and Haute-Meldick. It consisted of three parts: the regular places, the peripheral districts and the outbuildings. The abbey church was located at the heart of the monastery and all the buildings were organized around it. The monastery also had a cloister, refectory, parlour, celler, chauffoir and kitchens. The ruins of the abbey offer a fascinating insight into the medieval history of France and are a popular tourist attraction.

This cathedral, the former "Cloître Notre-Dame" of the canons, is the most beautiful religious building in the region. The shape and dimensions are impressive. The choir dates from 1200, the transept from the 13th century, the nave from the 14th-15th century. The 50 m high facade tower is decorated with vertical blind arches and crowned with watchtowers (15th century). On the middle buttress of the southern portal there is a statue of the Virgin Mary (14th century), and on the tympanum a Last Judgement with very few chosen ones. In the corner next to the choir there is an octagonal Romanesque tower.

You will see the tomb of St. Audomarus and the mausoleum of Eustache de Croy, chapter provost in Saint-Omer and bishop of Arras, a moving work by Jacques Dubroeucq (16th century). He shows the deceased kneeling, in bishop's robes, but also lying down and naked, as in classical antiquity. Note the 15th-century tombstones with inscriptions and the Descent from the Cross by Rubens (first bay of the right aisle). The tombs are 15th century, the alabaster statues 16th and 17th centuries. Other eye-catchers are the Madonna with cat (right aisle), the statue (13th century) of Notre-Dame des Miracles that attracts pilgrims every September, a Nativity of Christ from the 13th century and the tomb (8th century) of St. Erkembode, abbot of Saint-Bertin - here they leave shoes of children who have difficulty learning to walk. Above the astronomical clock (1558) a jaquemart tolls the hours (transept left). Above it is a rose window in flamboyant style. The statue group Grand Dieu de Thérouanne (13th century) stood 20 m above the portal of the cathedral of Thérouanne, which was destroyed by Charles V. The figures seem distorted, but the artist foreshortened them so that they had the correct perspective from below (transept left).

Situated along the River Houlle, the Serques Marshes are part of the larger Audomarois Marshes. This area is renowned for its rich biodiversity and beautiful scenery. The nearby village of Houlle is a popular destination for tourists looking for a peaceful waterside holiday. The River Houlle, a tributary of the Aa, flows through these marshes and provides a picturesque setting for walks and boat trips. The area is also known for the production of Houlle gin, a traditional spirit. The marshes themselves are an important natural area and are home to a variety of plant and animal species. It is an ideal place for nature lovers and bird watchers.
