About this spot
Rue Nationale has a rich history that dates back several centuries. It was originally part of a Roman road that connected Lille (then known as L'Isle) to other major cities.

The architecture along Rue Nationale is diverse, featuring a blend of styles from different eras. You can find buildings that range from medieval to 19th-century designs. Many facades boast beautiful details, such as ornate carvings, decorative moldings, and intricate balconies, showcasing the architectural heritage of Lille.

Due to its historic orientation, the Rue National offers one of the best lines of sight towards the Belfry tower with some magnificent facades in the foreground.
