Bière et histoire : Une visite houblonnée de l'Hôtel de Ville
Presentation
Discover the Boves, plunging into the atmosphere of limestone quarries delved out from the tenth century onwards.
The guided visit of the Boves is a tourist circuit laid out in the underground levels of the town, offering an insight into Arras's "subterranean history".
Initially a place of chalk extaction and sweated toi, these "boves" became cellars, storeplaces for the merchants of the town's squares, and later a shelter for the townspoeple during Second World War bombardments...Gaze in wide-eyed amazement as you discover a fascinating history in the shadows of the Boves.
