*************

Doullens is a commune in the Somme department in Picardie in northern France.

Its inhabitants are called Doullennais and Doullennaises.^[1]

Doullens is situated on the N25 road, in the northern part of the department, straddling the river Authie, the border with the Pas-de-Calais. Doullens is practically mid-way on the intersection of these axes :

• Abbeville - Arras
• Amiens - Saint-Pol-sur-Ternoise
• Crécy-en-Ponthieu - Bapaume
• Auxi-le-Château - Acheux-en-Amiénois

Sites and monuments include:

• the ruins of Saint-Pierre, partly of the 13th century, used as a barn in the nineteenth century (Hare).
• Notre-Dame church.
• the early 17th century brick belfry.
• the Citadelle, built by Vauban, which has often served as a state prison, and later, a reformatory for girls. When Victor Hugo saw the Citadel in August 1837, the famous writer said, ""I don't like citadels!""
