Flea market on rue Henri Puype in Arques, city of crystal
The brocante of Arques is held at 32 rue Henri Puype, in this town famous for its crystal factory Arc International (formerly Arques). Collectors will find a fine assortment of flea market finds, trinkets, old tableware, and second-hand items. The proximity of the Fontinettes boat lift, a major historical monument, adds to the charm of this Sunday outing in the Audomarois region.
Arques, a town bordering Saint-Omer, is world-renowned for its crystal factory founded in 1825, which became Arc International. The town has retained its working-class and friendly character, and its flea markets reflect this authenticity. Rue Henri Puype hosts exhibitors and collectors in a quiet and accessible residential area.
Arques is crossed by the Neufossé canal and the large-gauge canal. The Fontinettes boat lift, a 19th-century technical feat now classified as a historical monument, testifies to the importance of barge traffic in local history. A detour is a must after your flea market hunt!
