Culture and experiences
At Château de Fressin, underground passages, rooms and wells are open to the public. Château de Fressin also offers family-friendly activities such as escape games, treasure hunts, archery, traditional wooden games, medieval gardens and an exhibition room.
The scale model of Saint-Martin Church was reinstalled in the church and officially inaugurated on 17 October 2015. The heritage information panels distributed throughout Fressin contain QR codes that visitors can scan with their smartphones on site to access detailed explanations of the individual heritage features. The “In the footsteps of Bernanos” rally experience begins in Fressin and takes visitors through the local heritage with a guidebook and puzzles.
Saint-Martin Church was built in the 15th and 16th centuries by the family of the Lords of Créquy. Its rich Flamboyant Gothic decoration has earned it the designation “little cathedral of Pas-de-Calais”; it has been protected as a historic monument since 1906.
In the wider area around Fressin are the historic site of Abbaye de Valloires, the ancient site of the Site archéologique de Thérouanne, the historic site of Abbaye Notre-Dame de Willencourt (Willencourt, France), dating from 1220–1652, the Abbaye de Belval monastery and the Parc du chàteau park.
