The Église Saint-Bernard de Clairmarais is a beautiful historic building located in Clairmarais, Pas-de-Calais. The church was built in the 19th century, with its consecration in 1876. It is an example of Gothic architecture, with a simple but impressive style. The church is located near the ruins of the old Cistercian Abbey of Clairmarais, making it a unique place to explore the history of the region.

The Monument aux Morts in Clairmarais is a memorial erected to commemorate the military victims of the municipality who died during the First and Second World Wars. The monument is located on the side of the church and was officially inaugurated on 15 August 1925. The inscription on the monument reads: "Aux enfants de Clairmarais morts pour la France" (The children of Claremarais who died for France).
The monument shows a statue of a soldier supporting his rifle, in front of a cross on which the names of the victims are inscribed. The monument was restored in the summer of 2004 by Christian Vanheren.

Saint-Omer Cathedral

Highlight • Other

You will see the tomb of St. Audomarus and the mausoleum of Eustache de Croy, chapter provost in Saint-Omer and bishop of Arras, a moving work by Jacques Dubroeucq (16th century). He shows the deceased kneeling, in bishop's robes, but also lying down and naked, as in classical antiquity. Note the 15th-century tombstones with inscriptions and the Descent from the Cross by Rubens (first bay of the right aisle). The tombs are 15th century, the alabaster statues 16th and 17th centuries. Other eye-catchers are the Madonna with cat (right aisle), the statue (13th century) of Notre-Dame des Miracles that attracts pilgrims every September, a Nativity of Christ from the 13th century and the tomb (8th century) of St. Erkembode, abbot of Saint-Bertin - here they leave shoes of children who have difficulty learning to walk. Above the astronomical clock (1558) a jaquemart tolls the hours (transept left). Above it is a rose window in flamboyant style. The statue group Grand Dieu de Thérouanne (13th century) stood 20 m above the portal of the cathedral of Thérouanne, which was destroyed by Charles V. The figures seem distorted, but the artist foreshortened them so that they had the correct perspective from below (transept left).
