Enjoy the contrasting moods of this City of Art and History where art deco and Gothic architecture, majestically represented by the City Hall and the Basilica, stand side by side. Enquire at the Tourist Office for the programme of guided tours of our heritages sites, available all year round.



Fun for all the family :

Le Tchot Quentin
Pick up your ‘Tchot Quentin Mag’ and its treasure hunt at the Tourist Office reception desk and set out to discover the town in the company of its mascot: Tchot-Quentin! With tours, workshops and shows, everything has been arranged to ensure that the children have a great time, and it’s all listed in this neat little brochure! Fans will also be interested to know that there is a Tchot Quentin reporter’s club!



Events :

La fête du Bouffon – June
Every year at Whitsuntide (Pentecôte), Saint-Quentin has a date with folk tradition, celebrating the “buffoon”, in the form of the crazy festivities typical of the north of France. In Saint-Quentin the party is presided over by the town giant, Herbert. A big carnival parade, street acts, brass bands… A show not to miss!
