Calvin's birthplace is dedicated to the famous reformer born here in 1509. Rebuilt after its destruction during the First World War, it now houses a museum retracing the life and work of John Calvin, as well as the religious and humanist history of his time. It houses a rich collection of portraits, ancient works, documents, and 16th-century furniture.

These charging stations are actively in use. I've never seen so many cargo ships on any other canal. There are several charging stations of various shapes and sizes along the canal.

There is still a lot of cargo ship traffic here. There are also several loading and unloading stations.

The castle is almost invisible from the towpath. Good that the highlight is positioned correctly, otherwise you will definitely miss it.

The Canal du Nord is a 95 km long canal in northern France that connects the Oise Valley to the Dunkirk-Scheldt Canal. Construction began in 1908, but was interrupted by the First World War. The canal was not completed and opened to navigation until 1965. The canal has 19 locks and two tunnels, including the Ruyaulcourt Tunnel, which spans a height difference of 40 metres. The Canal du Nord is an important waterway for inland navigation, but will be replaced in the future by the Seine-Nord Europe Canal, a more modern connection.

The Château d'Happlaincourt, a medieval castle, dates from the 13th century and was originally a fortified structure with a square floor plan, surrounded by water. During the First World War, the castle was largely destroyed, leaving only ruins today. Historically, it played a role in the Catholic League in the 16th century, when Jacques d'Humières drew up a manifesto there to restore the Catholic religion.

The Noyon war memorial is a shell-shaped memorial pillar standing on the cathedral forecourt. This monument is the work of architects Eugène Chifflot and René Lefèvre. The monument includes a bas-relief sculpted by Emile Pinchon and illustrating scenes from life in Noyon during and after the conflict. It recalls in particular the hostage-taking of September 29, 1914, the entry of the French on March 18, 1917 and Noyon in ruins in 1918. This war memorial was inaugurated under the aegis of Marshal Joffre on March 22, 1925.

The Cathedral of Notre-Dame de Noyon is an impressive Gothic building in the heart of Noyon, in the Oise department. Built between 1145 and 1235, the cathedral is a major religious and cultural monument. It exemplifies the transition from Romanesque to Gothic architecture. The cathedral is 103.11 meters long (exterior) and 91.33 meters (interior), with a nave height of 22.73 meters. The interior is richly decorated with works of art and features a magnificent Merklin organ from 1898. The cathedral also has a Louis XVI-style high altar.
