Nice single along a river.

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.

The Château de Duisans is a castle in the French commune of Duisans. Dating back to the 18th century, the castle is a perfect representative of the classical architecture that spread in the northern provinces in the 18th century. The building also combines typical features of Artesian know-how

Listed as a historic monument, it was built in the 15th and 16th centuries. Dominating the village is this important one stone construction with a sandstone base and an 8th century bell tower. The architecture of the ship is remarkable, especially for its vaults and chapels. The first church of Agnez, whose date of construction is unknown, was destroyed in 1475 by the French troops of Louis 12. Only the tower and the choir remain. But traces of the old ship are still visible at the foot of the tower. The 15th century bell tower was raised around 1632 and topped by a stone spire. The building was then restored between 1842 and 1845 by architect A. Grigny. The interior of the church is decorated in Gothic style. The tower has a defensive appearance, which leads us to believe that it served as a lookout post during military tensions. Indeed, we can see a crenellated balustrade at the top of the tower protecting the walkway from enemy fire. Loopholes have also been created in the front of the tower so that spectators can watch without being seen. They could also shoot their attacker from cover. To complicate and delay the siege of the church, diagonal buttresses are placed on the walls of the tower. We can also note that the tower does not have large windows that could facilitate the penetration of attackers into the church. The only openings in the tower are the abat sounds that allowed to spread the sound of the bells, used in certain cases to warn the population of an attack.

Rebuilt in 1792, the church was partly destroyed during the revolution after seeing its furniture piled up and burned inside; it is said that only the walls remained. Its patron saint is St Quentin. The church was purchased by the son Aimable Billot de Lattre on 7 Floréal year 9, (May 7, 1801) from the Fabrique, for the sum of 58,300 francs. The bell tower, although restored in recent years, still appears to be the bell tower of the old church which dates back to a very remote period. It bears the stamp of the 13th century. The current bell dates from 1890 (700kg) It is called Marie, was baptized by Mr. LEFIN, dean of Avesnes-le-Comte, and had as godfather Mr. Brazier, Mayor, and as godmother Me Desaulty. As a relic, the church firstly has a considerable relic (femur bone) of St Quentin, a gift made by the church of St Quentin to Mr. Flajollet priest of Lattre at the beginning of this century as well as a fairly important relic from St Vaast, one from St Arnaud and one from St Wulgan. There was once a very popular pilgrimage in honor of St Quentin. It is difficult to assign the time when this pilgrimage began. But as far back as the church's account registers go, that is to say in the year 1570, there is question of the income made by the sale to pilgrims of coupons to burn and images on the days of the feasts of St Quentin.
