Underground city serving as a refuge with a network of galleries, a village and monuments, the museum of Picardy Trades to visit.

The Cité Souterraine de Naours, dug out by local inhabitants over the centuries, served as a refuge during wars and invasions, known as "muches" (hiding places in Picardy). Comprising 28 galleries and 300 chambers, it was inhabited from the Middle Ages to the 17th century, before being rediscovered in 1887. Today, plunge into this fascinating labyrinth, explore the museum of old trades and the "Les Soldats voyageurs" interpretation center.

Very interesting, but take your own torches. Luckily I always have a torch.
We didn't see another soul when we visited, apart from a low flying bat!
Interesting place but not enough info on its earlier history, we felt. You basically follow the numbers and you get a recorder you just press the number of each station as you arrive. There is one section towards the end that could be mildly claustrophobic for some, but it's only about 2m section.
Café ok, souvenir shop a bit lacking.

Greu de conceput astazi sa traiesti in subterane intr-o vechea carieră de cretă care a servit drept refugiu pentru locuitorii satului în timpul războaielor și invaziilor pe care le-a experimentat Picardia. Acest imens labirint subteran, remarcabil de organizat, este recunoscut ca fiind unul dintre cele mai mari din nordul Franței.

Een mooie belevenis om te zien hoe mensen daar 30 mtr onder de grond geleefd hebben in tijden van gevaar
