Stayed in a nice chateau in Bourbourg.

Historic & Modern Dunkerque

Dunkerque started life in the 8th century as a simple fishing harbour. It has become a major international port and industrial centre, handling bulk cargoes from all over the world, as well as being a freight ferry port for many lorries crossing between the UK and Europe.

The famous wartime evacuation
In Britain many people first associate "Dunkirk" (the English spelling) with the famous evacuation of British, French and Allied troops in 1940.

There are some very nice places in this area.

Last visit to Dunkerque: Dec 1999
