Brocante de Wardrecques

Country flea market in Wardrecques

The Allée des Acacias in Wardrecques, lined with trees as its name suggests, offers a shaded and pleasant setting for this spring flea market. The village, stretched along the Aa valley between Saint-Omer and Aire-sur-la-Lys, retains an authentic rural character which is reflected in the atmosphere of its flea market.

Along the Aa

Wardrecques is crossed by the Aa, a coastal river that originates in the Boulonnais and flows into the North Sea. The commune, essentially agricultural, has some beautiful red brick Flemish farms. Its annual flea market is a moment of conviviality appreciated by the inhabitants of the canton and passing collectors.
