The City of Roubaix

Since August 1999, Roubaix is equipped with a metro connected to the Lille European Metropolitan area’s transportation network, and has developed an energetic renovation and stimulation policy which allows the city to reconsider its exceptional and well-preserved heritage which illustrates the history of the industrial textile revolution. In December 2000, Roubaix was awarded the label “Ville d’Art et d’Histoire” – a city of art and history.

The City of Roubaix participates in a process to make culture available to all Roubaix residents. The Culture Division, in partnership with numerous partners (municipal facilities, public establishments, and non-profit actors) multiplies efforts in this direction.

Numerous cultural actions and heritage valorisation are implemented for adults and children, to everyone’s great pleasure.

View all the municipal structures and public facilities, non-profit structures, venues for art activities and cultural programmes.
