Pass byCathedrale de la Treille
The Notre-Dame de la Treille Cathedral in Lille, with its impressive modern facade made of marble and steel, stands out as a remarkable piece of architecture, deviating from the traditional Gothic style. Construction began in the 19th century, but it wasn’t until 1999 that the unique facade, designed by Pierre-Louis Carlier and Ladislas Kinossian, was completed.
Pass byPorte de Paris
The Porte de Paris is a magnificent triumphal arch in Lille, built at the end of the 17th century in honor of Louis XIV and his conquest of the city. This iconic monument, richly adorned with sculptures and ornaments, marks one of Lille's key gateways and exudes grandeur.
Pass byPalais Rihour
Rihour Palace in Lille is an impressive historical landmark, renowned for its Gothic architecture and rich history. Originally built in the 15th century by Philip the Good as a residence for the Dukes of Burgundy, the palace now houses Lille’s tourist office.

Euralille, an iconic complex in the heart of Lille, is known for its futuristic architecture and modern allure. Opened in the 1990s, Euralille includes shopping centers, offices, and several hotels.

Originally founded in the 13th century by Countess Jeanne of Flanders, this former hospital now houses an extensive collection of art, furniture, and artifacts. The building itself, with its vaulted ceilings, Gothic arches, and serene courtyard, is a testament to medieval craftsmanship.

Decent app for walk around Lille
David B, Jul 2025
Good way to learn about Lille in a short time. Interesting narrative and facts.
The email from the supplier could be improved as the links didn't work (at least for me). Had to guess that I needed to download the app. Once installed app really easy to use.
The narrator voice was not great. Sounds like some AI generated American speak. Couldn't even pronounce the name of Lille properly. Tolerable though for the price.
Overall, recommend.
Fun and convenient audio tour!
Kelly_W, Jul 2025
We took the Lille audio tour recently - it was very fun and informative! We enjoyed having a walking route planned for us with notable features mapped out and audio interpretation. The one element that we found difficult was that the app wouldn't ping us if we weren't directly on top of a feature, meaning that we walking right by a few since we were on the "wrong" side of the street and couldn't access one because it was blocked off due to the Tour de France setup. Because we hadn't "activated" these nodes, we couldn't read or listen to the interpretation which was annoying - I'm removing one star for that. Other than that, it was a worthwhile we really enjoyed the tour and would likely try another one when we visit our next new city.

Hello Kelly,
Thank you for your kind words! Please note that there is a functionality in the app to activate the audiofiles just by clicking the POI on the map.
We'd love to see you on your next citytrip!
Nice walking tour through...

Nice walking tour through Lille with info at the highlights. Very unfortunate that text was spoken automatically and not by person. Because of this, words / text sometimes pronounced very strange.
