Route des Batailles in Thérouanne
Thérouanne was the capital of the Gallic tribe known as the ‘Morins’. The town was conquered by Julius Caesar. In the Middle Ages, it was the seat of an important bishopric stretching from the Canche to the Yser. It was completely destroyed following the siege by Charles V’s imperial army in 1553, as it was a French enclave.
This trail pays tribute to the three battles that took place at Enguinegatte during the capture of Thérouanne. It is a signposted trail managed by the Pays de Saint-Omer Urban Community.
