Many centuries ago, our ancestors discovered the possibility of harnessing the power of the elements—which, on the one hand, were helpful and useful, but on the other hand, as untamed forces of nature, could also be a threat—for various purposes, thus eliminating the need for human or animal muscle power. Mills such as these are a good example of the human engineering skills of earlier generations: The heavy millstones used to grind grain or press oil, for example, could be powered by wind or—as in this case—water.

Thérouanne was Sigeric's 77th stop on his return from Canturbey's pilgrimage to Rome. In the 19th century, this fortified town was a French enclave within the German Empire, but was razed by Charles V in 1553. On the hill north of the town are the remains of one of the first cathedrals built in the Gothic style in France. The famous Great God of Thérouanne, which adorned one of the portals, is now housed in Saint-Omer Cathedral.

The Ascenseur à bateaux des Fontinettes is a historic boat lift in Arques, France. It was built between 1881 and 1887 and is the only remaining boat lift in France. It was built to link the River Lys with the River Aa, giving Lille and other inland cities a French route to the sea. The canal has a maximum height of 19 metres and a minimum height of 3 metres. It is a unique feat of hydraulic engineering and works on the principle of communicating vessels and Archimedes' law. It can carry two boats at a time and takes approximately 22 minutes to raise or lower a boat. It is a popular tourist attraction and offers a fascinating insight into France's industrial history.
