A must for all the inhabitants of Lille, since the Middle Ages an important market and the Théâtre du Nord have been held here.

The famous Grand'Place, renamed in honour of General de Gaulle on 12 August 1944, is located in the heart of the city between Old Lille and the pedestrian area. It is an essential place for all the inhabitants of Lille to gather. Since the Middle Ages, it has been the site of an important market and part of the old cobblestones can be found in the centre of the square. Also worth seeing, the column of the Goddess, the Flemish façade of the Voix du Nord, the Théâtre du Nord. And of course the Vieille Bourse.

Lieu de rendez-vous, la Grand Place est vaste et entourée de bâtiments dont l'architecture vaut le coup d'œil. Elle est idéalement située aux portes du Vieux Lille et compte bon nombre de cafés où il est agréable de flâner en été.

Lieu incontournable de Lille, au style typique, ce lieu de rendez-vous vous permettra ensuite de vous orienter vers tous les points d'intérêts lillois. Que ce soit pour du shopping rue de Béthune, pour admirer le Vieux Lille à l'opposé ; la Grand Place est le point central de Lille.

The main square of Lille has all the big Flemish places! It is a large esplanade, surrounded by historic buildings with colourful facades. The old stock market is a magnificent building. As for shopping, do not miss " Le Furet du Nord " who is a large bookstore/paper mill, where it is a pleasure to strolling on several floors.
From there, you can go up to the historic district and its shops (Meert pastry and its pits filled for example…), or go walking on the other side to the pedestrian streets and shops to classical standard.
