The citadel of Lille (French: Citadelle de Lille) is a bastion fortress built between 1668 and 1671 to a design by Sébastien Le Prestre de Vauban. It was built in the west of the city center separated by the Esplanade of Lille in a flooded former moorland on the Deûle near the present border with Belgium in France (Wikipedia).

The Canal de la Deûle is one of the oldest canals in northern France, connecting the River Scarpe at Douai with the River Lys at Deûlémont, near the Belgian border. The canal is approximately 34.8 km long and has 3 locks. Most of the canal is incorporated into the Dunkerque-Escaut high-performance waterway, with the remaining section through the port of Lille often considered a branch of the main route, hence the alternative names Liaison or Antenne Bauvin-Lys.
