Located in the picturesque Somme region, Amiens is a city rich in history and culture, offering a variety of attractions for all visitors. Known for its magnificent Gothic cathedral, charming hortillonnages and vibrant Saint-Leu district, Amiens is the ideal destination for those looking to combine relaxation with cultural exploration. Discover what this unique city has to offer and why it could be the perfect destination for your next holiday.
The jewel in Amiens' crown is undoubtedly its cathedral, the largest Gothic cathedral in France and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. With its ornate façade and detailed carvings, Notre-Dame Cathedral is an architectural masterpiece that attracts visitors from all over the world. Inside, visitors can admire magnificent stained glass windows, a floor labyrinth and the famous reliquary of Saint John the Baptist.


Just a stone's throw from the city centre, explore the hortillonnages, a labyrinth of floating gardens stretching over 300 hectares. Accessible only by boat, these market gardens are an oasis of tranquillity and offer a unique perspective on the region's natural heritage. Guided tours are available to discover this exceptional ecosystem while enjoying the tranquillity of the canals.
Saint-Leu is the historic and vibrant heart of Amiens. This district, with its picturesque canals and colourful houses, is often compared to a little Venice. The cobbled streets are full of craft shops, art galleries, cafés and restaurants where you can sample the local cuisine. At night, Saint-Leu comes alive, offering a festive atmosphere with its many bars and live music venues.
Amiens is also rich in museums and cultural spaces. The Musée de Picardie, for example, features a large collection of works of art and historical objects, from prehistory to modern art. For lovers of literature, the home of Jules Verne, where the writer lived for 18 years, has been transformed into a museum dedicated to his life and work.
Discover where the legendary writer imagined most of his famous adventures. The house is now a museum featuring his personal memorabilia, first editions of his works and interactive installations that immerse visitors in his creative world.
