Gate to Cambrai

Highlight • Other

The Porte de Paris in Cambrai is an impressive remnant of the old city defences. Originally built to protect the southern entrance to the city, this gate dates from the end of the 14th century. The architecture of the gate is typical of the style of the time, with sturdy stone structures designed to withstand attacks.
The Porte de Paris is part of what was once a four-kilometre-long city wall, reinforced by around fifty towers and seven gates. This gate is one of the few remaining parts of these defences and offers a fascinating insight into medieval military architecture.

Basilique Saint-Quentin

Highlight • Religious Site

Gothic church. Started construction in the 12th century and completed in the 15th century.
When we enter the church we stand hesitantly for a moment before the octagonal labyrinth inlaid in black and white marble in the floor of the nave, a phenomenon common to medieval churches. Pilgrims follow the path to the center of the labyrinth barefoot or on their knees, on their way to enlightenment and a deeper relationship with God.
