Very beautiful ruin

Something new is emerging here

You absolutely have to see it. The climb is worth it ;-)

From the top of a hill, the panorama from Mont-Saint-Eloi extends over the entire Scarpe valley and the Artois plain. The village is known for the ruins of its abbey, and the two towers dominate the surrounding landscape.

You have to make an effort to do the climb, take a little breath

The Carrière Wellington is an underground quarry in Arras, France. It was used as a shelter for soldiers during the First World War and is now a museum in memory of the victims of the Battle of Arras in 1917.

The two towers of Mont-Saint-Éloi dominate the Arras region. They can be seen from afar. They shape the landscape of the Artois plains. They are a landmark for those walking in the surrounding area. Located on a hill seven kilometers northwest of Arras, the two towers of Mont-Saint-Éloi are the monumental remains of an abbey with a thousand-year history. Listed as a historical monument since 1921 and owned by the Pas-de-Calais Department since 2008, the two towers are the subject of a scientific and cultural project to raise awareness and promote their heritage. Between 2010 and 2015, the Department carried out restoration work, and its archaeology department conducted six excavations.

Impressive memorial and exciting place in the First World War.
