Place des Heros
Arras is blessed with a very rich architectural heritage as its two Flemish Baroque style squares : « La Place des Heroes » and « La Grand Place » will confirm. It is also a place full of history going from Roman times and across the centuries including the first world war. During these 20 minutes, your guide will take you on a journey through time.
Carriere Wellington
The Wellington Quarry in Arras is a remarkable network of underground tunnels built, mostly by 500 miners from the New Zealand Tunnelling Company in 1917 before the Battle of Arras. This network of tunnels will accommodate 24,000 soldiers before the surprise assault on the 9th of April. The tunnels are accessed via a glass-walled lift down the twenty meters to the quarry floor. The tour consists of both guided and audio-guided tours on a planned path accessible for wheelchairs.

An informative and humbling tour

5.00What an amazing and informative tour, also very humbling seeing where our soliders fought during WWI and having described to you the conditions they had to tolerate - it certainly was no picnic. Brigitte, our guide, brought to life their daily lives of struggles and hardship endured whilst fighting the Germans. The Wellington Quarry was also an interesting visit to see how our New Zealand miners within a short period of time extended the tunnels under Arras, from the Middle Ages, for a surprise attack on the enemy. A fantastic and a must do for tour by an extremely knowledgeable guide. Highly recommended.
