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.

With easy bicycle access. (ideal for reaching the station).

La Maison du Marais is a museum and cultural centre in Saint-Martin-au-Laërt, bordering the city of Saint-Omer in northern France. Opened in 2014, it is dedicated to the nature of the area’s marshland and polder landscapes and to regional history and culture. The museum offers an original experience for visitors looking to reconnect with nature and their imagination.
