The selection highlights the city's evolution through the 19th-century Beaux-Arts Préfecture and the historic fortifications at Porte de Dunkerque. Visitors can also explore the bustling Rue de Béthune shopping district and significant heritage sites like the former Jesuit college, now the Scrive military hospital, which reflects the city's rich institutional history.
