Arras France Pas de Calais

The old town of Arras photos and guide places to stay

Arras is the capital of the Pas de Calais region. Its two large town squares were destroyed in WW1. They were originally created 800 years ago.

The town is very busy but we found it easy to park in one of the squares. There is a lot to see in the centre the flemish style houses and shops.

Underneath is a vast network of tunnels. Which were used by the British army in WW1 but date back to the French Revolution.

The view from the town hall belfry of the town is just stunning. You can see on a clear day Vimy ridge with the Canadian Monument.

Saturday and Wednesday morning is market day in the squares. You need to get there early parking can be a problem.

There are plenty of shops in the centre to walk round. A guide to places to eat in the city a local Map

Best Western De L Univers Hotel Arras

The Best Western Hotel L'Univers was a Jesuit monastery in the 16th Century; it was then transformed to a hospital, then a college and now a hotel.

Located in the city center, in a secluded street where you can enjoy the peace of the countryside and experience golf or fishing.

In the evening, you can relax in our gastronomic restaurant or in the lounge. Facilities are available for meetings that can accommodate up to 150 guests.
