Origin and history
La Concorde is a monument located in Tourcoing, in the Nord department, in the Hauts-de-France region. Built in the first half of the 20th century, it embodies a fun and cultural heritage typical of the region. This type of bourloire, a traditional game close to the petanque or outdoor pool, was often a place of gathering and conviviality for the inhabitants.
The bourloire was listed in the Historic Monuments by order of 5 February 2003, which includes the entire structure and its playing track. It is now owned by the municipality of Tourcoing. This type of monument illustrates the social and recreational practices of the time, where collective games played an important role in community life, especially in industrial cities in northern France.
Based on the available data, the location of the kettle is specified at the following address: 2 rue de Seclin, 59200 Tourcoing. The accuracy of this location is estimated as fair, with a score of 5 out of 10. This monument, although less well known than other historic buildings, bears witness to an unknown aspect of the local heritage, linked to leisure and urban sociability in the early twentieth century.
