Classical style belfry built between 1716 and 1721 symbolizing the return of Aire-sur-la-Lys to the fold of the kingdom of France.

Built between 1716 and 1721, the town hall is the work of King Louis XIV's architect in Arras: Héroguel. Classified as a historical monument in 1947 and a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2005, this classical-style belfry symbolises the return of Aire-sur-la-Lys to the bosom of the Kingdom of France after the Dutch occupation of 1710. Ten pilasters crown a balustrade and a pediment charged with symbols of strength and justice. The arms of the town have replaced the royal arms but a head of Apollo still betrays the imprint of the Sun King.

Bel édifice de style "nord-pas de calais" il est très photogénique (préférez prendre le beffroi par la ruelle arrière), l'ensemble hôtel de ville-beffroi est magnifique situé sur une place sans intérêt contrairement aux grands places des autres villes de la région. Une bonne partie du rez de chaussée a été aménage de façon moderne (à voir, c'est surprenant).
