There are works by Monet, Raphael, Gustave Courbet, Rubens, van Gogh, Do...

On Rue Pincesse, in a leafy neighbourhood north of Old Lille, is the house where Charles de Gaulle was born on November 22 1890.

With the help of family keepsakes and contemporary memorabilia the house is n...
The art deco Hôtel de Ville went up in the 1920s and took inspiration from Lille’s famous gables.
