Arras, capital of the Pas-de-Calais department, has 41,000 inhabitants and offers one of the most remarkable heritage ensembles in northern France. Its Grand-Place and Place des Héros, framed by 155 Flemish baroque facades from the 17th century, as well as its town hall topped by a 75-meter belfry listed as UNESCO World Heritage, make it a major cultural destination. The city is also a major site of remembrance tourism: the Canadian Vimy Memorial, 10 kilometers away, commemorates the Battle of Vimy Ridge (1917). Each summer, the Main Square Festival attracts 130,000 spectators to the Vauban citadel. FJ13 serves Arras for cultural and remembrance tourism.

Tourism and Great War remembrance

Arras is at the heart of one of the regions most marked by the First World War. The area was the scene of decisive battles: the Battle of Arras (April 1917) led by the British, the Battle of Vimy Ridge (April 1917) which sealed Canada's military identity, the Battle of Notre-Dame-de-Lorette (1914-1915) on the largest French military cemetery. The Canadian Vimy Memorial, inaugurated in 1936, has become a major pilgrimage site for Canadians: 250,000 visitors per year. The Notre-Dame-de-Lorette memorial, 20 minutes from Arras, hosts the national cemetery and the Ring of Remembrance (2014) listing 580,000 names of soldiers fallen in Nord-Pas-de-Calais. FJ13 organizes tailor-made tours: Vimy in the morning, Notre-Dame-de-Lorette in the afternoon, return to Arras for the evening.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between the Grand-Place and Place des Héros in Arras ?

Arras is unique in having two adjacent Flemish baroque squares. The Grand-Place (155 facades) is the largest; Place des Héros, more intimate, houses the town hall and the UNESCO belfry. Our chauffeur can drop you at the entrance to Place des Héros, closer to the historic center and the Fish Market.

How can I visit the Vimy Memorial from Arras ?

The Canadian Vimy Memorial is 10 kilometers north of Arras, about 15 minutes by car. Our chauffeur takes you there and can wait during the visit (allow 1h30 to 2h for the memorial, the interpretation center and the preserved trenches). A powerful and moving site.

Is the Main Square Festival accessible by VTC ?

Yes, the Main Square Festival (first weekend of July) takes place in the Vauban citadel of Arras. The town center and access roads are very saturated; we plan pickup points on the outskirts (Arras TGV station, park and ride) to avoid traffic jams. Booking essential in advance.
