Belle Époque Houses of Mers-les-Bains

Highlight • Historical Site

The seaside district: after the construction of the railway at the end of the 19th century, which connects Mers-Les-Bains to Paris, exclusive tourism from Paris is booming. It was very fashionable at the time to take sea baths. Along the coast, the new seaside district displays all the characteristics of the Belle Époque. Wealthy Parisians and other aristocrats built their second homes there, generally in an Art Nouveau style characterized by metal, wood, or iron balconies and bay windows with rounded shapes, colorful facades, and exuberant ornamentation. The Franco-Dutch architect Eduard Johan Niermans (1859-1928), (born in Enschede, became a French national in 1895), designed several houses in the district between 1899 and 1907. The district still has about 300 villas from that era and was largely designated a remarkable heritage site in 1986. In late July and early August, the Bathers' Festival is celebrated there, with hundreds of people dressed in the fashion of the Belle Époque.

Aerial view of Le Tréport

Highlight • Viewpoint

In 1872, the railway connecting Le Treport and Mers-les-Bains with Paris was opened. But the tourist development of both places lagged behind that of other places on the Alabaster Coast.
One of the drawbacks of Le Treport is that the coastal strip, which is attractive to tourists, is narrow. The rest of the place is more than 100 meters higher on the chalk cliffs. In 1880 the first proposal was made to build a funicular, which would connect the lower town with the higher parts. This met a lot of resistance. It was not until 1907 that the construction of the funicular began, which opened on July 1, 1908. The architectural style of the upper station in steel and brick was reminiscent of the stations Javel and Grenelle[2] in Paris. Wooden wagons moved up and down with the help of cables.
The project was a success in the first years, but as a result of the First World War and the subsequent stock market crash of 1929, the operation became less and less profitable. In 1941, a long-range gun was installed on the upper station by the German occupier, and that marked the end of the operation.
Between 1958 and 1982, the connection was carried out by a cable car with gondolas. This was a failure both technically and financially.
In the period 2005-2006 the project was completely renovated. The newly built lower and upper stations are now connected by an automatic operating system, with four cabins moving along the inclined track. The use is free .

From here you can appreciate the cliffs south of Tréport. Be careful if you have vertigo, because the cliffs are really impressive! Chalk walls where a particular vegetation has adapted to the difficult conditions of the ground. If you ever need to orient yourself, a sign of arrows shows you the distance to major cities: Paris, London, Beauvais, etc.

Saint-Aubin Church

Highlight • Other

Built on earlier foundations, most of the current historic church building is from 1605, with some vestiges in the western gables remaining of an earlier building destroyed in 1474 by the troups of Charles the Bold.

Le Tréport

Highlight • Settlement

This fishing and port village developed into a seaside resort is now very busy in summer, which can be explained by its proximity to Paris and the lure of both the Côte d'Albâtre and the Côte d'Opale. It rivals in appeal its sister town on the other bank of the Bresle: Mers-les-Bains. This quiet place still has a number of remarkable villas in Belle Époque style. A very nice discovery.
