Barbieux Park, Roubaix

Highlight • Other

Parc Barbieux (or Barbieux) is recognized as one of the most beautiful urban parks in France.
Born from the abandonment in the second half of the 19th century of an underground canal project, Barbieux Park is a real English garden with an area of 34 hectares.


This remarkable green setting offers extraordinary natural diversity.
In addition to its 60 tree species and its bodies of water which are all invitations to wildlife, the park offers a magnificent walking route.
A leisure and relaxation area, there is also a children's play area and a pétanque court.
Affectionately known as “Le Beau Jardin” by Roubais residents, this listed site has received the Remarkable Garden label.


Regular guided tours are available from the tourist office.

Streetart Vreemde Dieren

Highlight • Other

Seher One’s fresco on the façade of the Baudelaire College in Roubaix was created as part of the Festival XU organised by So Street. Seher One, a Mexican artist with influences from the 1990s, was invited to paint the façade of the college. His colourful works often combine graffiti, traditional painting and design, and have attracted the attention of international brands such as Nike, Volvo and Disney. The use of intense colours is always a constant in the work of this young creative, which is great because he transports the viewer to other worlds quite easily.

Art Deco - Boulevard Cambrai

Highlight • Monument

Houses were built from 1890 onwards and the boulevard was completely landscaped before 1918, but only on the 2nd section between rue Mirabeau and rue de Lille. The section starting at Boulevard du Gal de Gaulle was only built from 1920 onwards, and therefore contains some beautiful Art Deco houses. The boulevard was completely restructured in 2016, with less parking in favour of planted and green medians, and perennials along the facades, which gives this boulevard a calm and serene atmosphere.
