As in all major cities, parking in the center is not always easy—especially with a large vehicle! There are several paid public parking garages in Lille, often with height limits of 2 meters (6 ft). Alternatively, you can park on the street. In the city center, parking is charged between 9:00am and 7:00pm, with rates varying by zone. For camper vans and motorhomes, we recommend parking around the Citadelle toward the Champs de Mars. If you prefer not to drive into the city center, you can choose a free park-and-ride facility outside the downtown area and then take public transit into town.
