Tourism
Douai – Discover Douai
Douai presents strong symbols of the region: the famous belfry and wonder at the carillon, still in operation today, dance with our giants during the Gayant festivals and explore the mining heritage, a rich legacy of the region’s industrial past.
If you take a cruise on the Scarpe Canal, you will pass through locks and discover the world of inland navigation. Perhaps take a stroll around France’s second largest river port after Conflans Sainte-Honorine.
Time to relax at a convivial table, awaken your taste buds over a potjevleesch, a Flemish carbonnade or a welsh with chips, all accompanied by a locally brewed beer. Tourims-Map
Belfry
Built in 1380, Douai’s belfry was included on UNESCO’s World Heritage List in 2005, because, as many Douaisians say, ‘Douai’s belfry is the most beautiful of all’. Stop for a moment at the foot of the Town Hall and take the time to admire its imposing stature and the magnificent details that make up its façade. Its sublime spire, featuring the great lion of Flanders and 54 golden suns, is a real architectural gem.
Standing 61 metres high, this belfry dominates the town and the surrounding valley. An emblematic monument of Gothic art, it seems to have many secrets to tell.
The Northern french cuisine
It is surely no secret that the inhabitants of the North love their chips! They will be found as the accompaniment of choice for many of the region’s typical dishes, such as the famous fricadelle, welsh, potjevleesch, Flemish carbonade or the unmissable moules-frites!
