ESQUELBECQ, BOOK VILLAGE AND FRENCH PEOPLE'S FAVORITE VILLAGE 2023
Go there and contact
It's the only book village north of Paris. In 2006, Esquelbecq took up the challenge of becoming a book village. As such, the village offers a wide range of events throughout the year, including a book market, literary aperitif, reading salon, meetings with authors and exhibitions. The highlight of the year is the Nuit des livres, a major event held every year on the first weekend in July. It will take place on July 6, 2024. Esquelbecq's exceptional setting, a blend of rurality and interesting architectural buildings (Hallekerke Saint-Folquin, château...), is in keeping with the ambitions of facilitating access to literary expression and culture for as many people as possible, but also with the promise of visiting a pretty corner of culture in Flanders. It's impossible not to fall under the spell of Esquelbecq, village of books and heritage. Christmas and book market on November 16 and 17, 2024. Book market on3rd Sunday from September to May.
