Azincourt is the site of the famous battle on 25 October 1415.
The village is in the Pas de Calais region of France. The village is just off the N 928 road Hesdin to St Omer. It is a well maintained village with good sign posts to the places of interest.We parked at the Medieval Centre and had a walk round the centre of the village. As far as the church and the Charles VI le restaurant then we went in the musuem to learn more about the battle
The museum is worth a visit more details are on another page.
Places to visit in and around the village

Just follow the bow men round the battlefield

in the position they were in the battle
The battlefield is well marked out with good sign posts and you can walk around the battlefield. We took the lazy way and drove round. The road was quite so you could stop and get out to take photos and imagine what the battle must have been like.You can see from the metal soldiers where the armies were deployed.
If you get hungry walking round the village try the Charles VI le restaurant on 12 Rue Charles VI, 62310 Azincourt
