Arras Audio Tour: Echoes of Battlefields, Basilicas & Botanic Bliss
A German shell once split the heavens above Arras, leaving Notre-Dame-et-Saint-Vaast Cathedral scarred yet sublime. Here, beneath gilded facades and grand plazas, secrets echo louder than cathedral bells. This self-guided audio tour weaves through the soul of Arras, leading deeper than guidebooks dare. Alleys and grand squares reveal stories most travelers never hear. What really happened in the tunnels beneath the streets during the Battle of Arras in 1917? Why was the reconstruction of Grand-Place almost a scandal in itself? And what peculiar item was once banned from the cathedral grounds for causing too much commotion? Wander stone-paved avenues where ghosts of conflict linger and sunlight spills across intricate Flemish gables. Each turn uncovers intrigue, tragedy and triumph, painting Arras in bold, unforgettable colors. Dive into Arras where every echo has a story and every shadow hides a secret. Your journey into the city’s living history begins now.
