A very well-known place for pilgrims and a good tavern which recently reopened: LA TABLE DE ST BENOIT.

Marina on the canal, the cycle path is great up to there.

Beautiful cycle path, EV5, along the canalized Lys.

Small bridge

One man not so well known to us. Worth reading his life and what he means to many.

Small, easy-going single track that can be done on gravel and mountain bikes.

The patron saint of the marginalized, Saint Benedict Joseph Labre, was born in 1748 in the picturesque village of Amettes. He is better known as "God's Traveler." A French mendicant pilgrim, he traveled the roads of Europe, from sanctuary to sanctuary until his final stop: Rome. He was canonized in 1881. The birthplace of Saint Benedict Joseph, a small chalet, has become an important pilgrimage site in Artois, dedicated to his memory and housing his belongings.

The monument was renovated in 1985 (the names were re-inscribed on marble plaques). Originally, the monument was flanked by two artillery pieces (75 mm cannons), the latter were removed by the Germans in 1943.
