Forget checklists. Follow your curiosity, lose yourself along the streets and discover the city's grand history. No other visit will be like yours.
From secret name to story.
Nothing to learn. Open the map, pick a name that intrigues you, walk there — the rest happens on its own.
By the end of the day, you have a walk.
The places you find line up end to end, in the order you came across them. A map of your route, the list of stops below it: the memory of your day, ready to reopen whenever you like.
- Every stop carries its discovery number, its thumbnail and its neighbourhood.
- Tap a stop and the map recentres on it. Tap a number on the map and the list scrolls to it.
- The book button reopens a place's story, as many times as you like.
The line joins your stops in straight segments: it's the thread of your discoveries, not a recording of your steps. Curiocité keeps no GPS trace.
Lille in your pocket, even offline.
One download at the start: the places, their stories, their images and the map of Lille install on your phone. After that, nothing needs the network. It's ideal when visiting Lille from abroad, without a data plan, or when the signal drops. Only access to GPS is still needed.
Follow the adventure, one step at a time.
New places, app updates and behind the scenes: find Curiocité on social media.
