The Gare d’Arras is a railway station in the city of Arras, located in northern France. The station opened in 1846 and is located near the city centre. The station is accessible via the Paris–Lille railway line and the Arras–Dunkerque railway line and is served by SNCF trains. A somewhat outdated train station with a 1960s flair.

A unique architectural whole The citadel of Arras was never besieged, hence its nickname “the belle inutile”, and is a well-preserved witness of the military buildings of the 17th century.

Once past the Porte Royale you will immediately see the Timescope on the side of the Saint-Louis chapel. This takes you back to 1678, 10 years after the start of the construction of this citadel on behalf of King Louis XIV of Vauban.

You can visit the citadel of Arras, a remarkable place in France. Vauban built it in the 1600s and it has preserved a rich legacy from its 300 years of military use. It became a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2008 after they demilitarized it. You can enjoy historic buildings, green trails and fun activities in this “small city within a city”.
