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."

Founded in 1889, this abbey was built in the Gothic style. Listed as a Historic Monument, it consists of several buildings, including two castles. Today, it is home to around twenty Benedictine nuns of all ages. The monastery is partially open to the public: the abbey church, parlor, and shop are accessible.

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.

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.

The statue of Suger in Saint-Omer is located in front of the ruins of the Abbey of Saint-Bertin. This impressive marble statue was created by the French sculptor Jean-Baptiste Stouf (1742-1826) and was originally placed in the courtyard of the Palace of Versailles in 1836. In 1931, it was decided to distribute these statues throughout France, and so the statue of Suger came to Saint-Omer, where he is said to have been born. The statue is 4.50 meters high and weighs 8 tons. The statue shows Suger with two symbols of royal power: the crown on a cushion and the hand of justice. Suger was an important figure in the Abbey of Saint-Denis and served as regent of the kingdom during the crusade of King Louis VII. He was born in 1082 and died in 1152.
