Arras 2017 – Old building

A kind gentlemen saw me taking pictures of this building and he sent me some old pictures of this building. It used to be a hotel-restaurant called La Ville de St. Omer, owned by Rallin and Picart. According to the text above the round windows it used to be an interior-decorating shop too. The open ground floor isn't original. According to the stone above the round windows, the building was restored in 1868. So it survived the First World War, when much of Arras was destroyed.
