Thérouanne

The commune of Thérouanne spans 8.37 square kilometers in northern France, positioned at an altitude of 45 meters above sea level.

The settlement served as the capital of the Morini tribe before becoming a Roman administrative center and later developing into a significant medieval diocese.

The Church of Saint Martin, rebuilt in the 19th century, stands as evidence of the religious heritage that defined Thérouanne through centuries.

The town maintains connections with local transportation networks and provides access to archaeological sites that showcase remnants of medieval structures.

Emperor Charles V ordered the complete destruction of Thérouanne in 1553, leading to its reconstruction as a smaller settlement outside the original city walls.
