Leaning Tower

Highlight • Structure

The Leaning Tower of Oye-Plage is a German blockhouse from the Second World War, designed to imitate a church steeple and mislead British aviators. Located a few kilometers north of the real bell tower, it resisted post-war demolition attempts, remaining tilted about twenty degrees, hence its nickname.

Grand-Fort-Philippe

Highlight • Other

The main activities have always been linked to fishing (ropemaking, smokehouse, shipbuilding). Two museums keep that memory alive. Maison du Sauvetage and Maison de la Mer.
Of the dozens of smokehouses, only one remains, which brine, dry and smoke the fish on beech wood in the traditional way.

Bourbourg

Highlight • Other

Bourbourg is a typical town in Northern France, centred around a market square and a church. IN this part of the world, if there is a church, you can bet there is a cafe too. Just be wary of opening times, many cafes and pubs will be closed at 12-2 pm. Make sure to have emergency food with you in case you get stranded.
