The Cathedral Palace in the shadow of Notre-Dame Cathedral in Saint-Omer, an hour from Lille and forty minutes from Calais. This fine edifice is the only inhabited tourist attraction of historical interest in France’s Haut-de-France region. It is a major emblem of Saint-Omer. In 1817, Étienne Neyrat bought these houses that lie in the shadow of Saint-Omer’s Notre-Dame Cathedral. He kept the buildings’ walls and turned the interior into an Empire-style palace, investing huge sums of money in this remarkable property. In the wake of the cholera epidemic in 1830, the house was sold to various wealthy families, then to a pharmaceutical laboratory. Successive owners with good taste have preserved the house. Its current inhabitants – serious art collectors – have recovered the edifice’s former glory through their determined efforts: this extraordinary place now invites you to admire the original rooms and colours of the museum-like house that Étienne Neyrat envisaged.
