Presentation

Born in Dunkirk in 1874, Eugène-Gabriel Pagnerre made a name for himself as an avant-garde architect inspired by a wide range of sources. Pagnerre's work had a lasting impact on the urban landscape of the Lille region. In Croix, 111 buildings have been listed, making it the second city where the architect built the most after Marcq-en-Barœul. Take an urban walk to discover this unique heritage and its astonishing architectural details.
