Once, cannon fire echoed across Tourcoing’s quiet streets and hidden revolutionaries plotted in candlelit chapels—proof that this city’s history pulses beneath every stone.

Set out on a self-guided audio tour that slips behind the facades of grand Town Hall and soaring churches, uncovering tales tourists often miss. Let whispered secrets and unexpected events draw you into Tourcoing’s shadowy corners and sunlit plazas.

Why did townsfolk once riot beneath the ornate towers of Saint-Christophe? What bizarre object vanished from Notre-Dame-des-Anges, launching a city-wide manhunt? Which Town Hall scandal toppled an entire council in a single day?

Move from sacred silence to political uproar, feeling the heartbeat of rebellion and faith beneath your feet. Each landmark comes alive with drama, intrigue, and the promise of seeing Tourcoing in thrilling new hues.

Dare to enter Tourcoing’s living story. Press play and uncover the layers waiting beneath your next step.
