The Porte Faurœulx is part of the fortified city walls built between the 15th and 17th centuries. These walls were built to protect the city from attacks and sieges. The gate itself dates from this period and is a remnant of the military architecture of the time. The gate is designed in a Renaissance style with strongly fortified walls and gateways strategically placed to protect the city. It has a circular plan and is built of brick and stone, which is typical of the military architecture of the period.

The belfry, also known as the Tour de l'Horloge, was built in the 17th century during the period of the fortified city of Le Quesnoy. The city had a more strategically important position and was fortified by the famous military engineer Vauban. The belfry served as a wake-up tower and a refuge during sieges. The belfry is designed in a Renaissance style with a circular plan. It is approximately 30 meters high and features a copper alarm clock that announces the hours. The tower is built of brick and stone and is decorated with various decorative elements that reflect the rich history of the city. In addition to its architectural value, the belfry also had an important function in the daily life of the city. It housed the city clock that woke and kept the inhabitants awake. During wars and sieges, it served as a strategic point for the defense of the city.
