Et maintenant: contez les Boves !
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.
