The Lille Chamber of Commerce is a building built at the beginning of the 20th century to accommodate all the services of the Chamber of Commerce created in Lille in 1715. It is classified as a historical monument and today houses the headquarters of the Chamber of Commerce. and industry in Greater Lille. Its 76 m high neo-Flemish style belfry is equipped with an automated carillon and is emblematic of the city of Lille.
