Epok Tour : Lille en 1913, entre bourse, textiles et charbon

  • Guided tour
38 Place Rihour Lille, 59800 Lille

Description

Immerse yourself in 1913, at the end of Lille's Belle Époque, on an immersive tour guided by Jean-Baptiste Charles de Joguet, a young bourgeois from the nobility. Stroll through the Vieille Bourse district, before venturing into the prosperous quarters that bear witness to the wealth of the local bourgeoisie. Let yourself be transported to an era of transformation as Lille reinvents itself, entering a new industrial and urban golden age. You'll also learn about the central role played by coal and the textile industry in the transformation of Lille, a city in the throes of change, where factory chimneys and spinning mills symbolize the industrial boom. Jean-Baptiste will share with you the effervescence of the Belle Époque, while revealing the secrets of a city in the throes of change. An ideal way to rediscover Lille through the prism of its rich past. On the occasion of the European Heritage Days, enjoy this unique experience at preferential rates specially designed to make heritage accessible to all: 9? for adults, 5? reduced rate (students under 25, jobseekers, young people aged 6 to 17), and free for children under 6. A great opportunity to (re)discover Lille with family or friends, during a stroll through history.
