With more than 200 works taken from the Louvre in Paris, this purpose-built gallery stands at the heart of the former mining basin at Lens, classified as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. Here pitheads and slagheaps have been given new life as museums, sports facilities and community hubs in an outstanding example of industrial regeneration. Also recognised by UNESCO are the belfries of Béthune, Arras and Douai, listed amongst 23 bell towers across Northern France and Belgium and regarded as symbols of local freedom since the Middle Ages. Like a mix of architectural styles? Then look out for Art Deco treasures such as Lens railway station; the swimming pool at Bruay-la-Buissière; and the flamboyant houses around Béthune. Buy property near Arras and shopping will take on a whole new perspective as you browse the stalls in the two vast market squares. Grand’Place and Place des Héros. Fringed with arcades and Flemish gables, they were painstakingly rebuilt in Baroque style after the devastation of World War I. Take time to reflect too amongst the sobering beauty of Great War cemeteries and memorials that honour the sacrifices of many nations here on the Western Front. Wherever you choose to buy in this cosmopolitan corner of Northern France, you are never short of places to go and things to do, all within easy reach. Now isn’t that a location worth thinking about?
