Aerial View over Historic Amiens
OnlineA sweeping aerial panorama looks out across the rooftops of Amiens, where the spire of the Cathédrale Notre-Dame and the slender silhouette of the Tour Perret rise above a dense weave of red-tiled houses. A tree-lined green corridor threads through the historic centre, framing one of northern France's most graceful cityscapes.

A City Crowned by Its Cathedral
This elevated vantage captures Amiens as a unified whole, with the Cathédrale Notre-Dame d'Amiens — the largest Gothic cathedral in France and a UNESCO World Heritage Site — anchoring the skyline above a tightly woven medieval street pattern.
The Tour Perret on the Horizon
Standing against the distant skyline, the Tour Perret marks the modern face of the city, a pioneering reinforced-concrete tower that rises beside the railway district and counterpoints the historic core.
Green Corridors Through Stone
A tree-lined boulevard and ribbons of public garden cut across the rooftops, a reminder of the canals and waterways that earned Amiens its nickname as the Little Venice of the North.
The Capital of the Somme
As the prefecture of the Somme in the Hauts-de-France region, Amiens blends a storied past with the everyday rhythm of a living regional capital, all surveyed in a single panoramic sweep.
