Cambric cloth, the fine white fabric that takes its English name from this Nord department city, was woven here from the Middle Ages. About 36,500 people live in Cambrai, a commune whose architectural character reflects centuries of prosperity followed by wartime destruction and reconstruction. The Battle of Cambrai in November 1917, the first large-scale use of massed tanks in warfare, left its mark on the surrounding landscape.
The Cathedrale Notre-Dame de Grace, built in the 18th century, replaced a medieval predecessor. The Porte de Paris, a 14th-century gate, survives as one of the oldest structures. Betises de Cambrai, the mint-flavoured boiled sweets created by accident in the 19th century, remain a local speciality.
