The site of Mont Saint Louis is located around the ruins of Guémy Chapel (15th century), classified since 1913 for its artistic interest as a place of worship and popular traditions – Gaulish Druids had already been practising their rites there before the chapel’s construction … The mountain dominates the Hem Valley to the south and the Flemish maritime plains to the north. On clear days, visitors can admire an exceptional view from Dunkirk to the cliffs of Cap Blanc-Nez.
