Artistic vibes, a cosmopolitan atmosphere and the cosiest market in northern France. Bet Wazemmes captures your heart.
Feel like discovering authentic Lille? Then Wazemmes is your district, because you won't run into many tourists in this colourful working-class neighbourhood. Until 1858, Wazemmes was still a separate municipality. The neighbourhood evolved from a typical working-class area full of textile factories into a cosmopolitan, artsy district that mainly attracts artists and bohemians. You will find creative shops and multiculti eateries. The Marché de Wazemmes is Lille's biggest market. Soak up the vibrant atmosphere in the covered market hall or stroll among the exotic stalls at the cosy open-air market, accompanied by a touch of accordion music.
