Le Familistère de Guise

Over a period of 20 years, beginning about 1856,Jean-Baptiste Godin built theFamilistery of Guise [fr;de;pt] (the Social Palace), an industrial and communal residential complex that was a separate community within Guise. It expressed many of his ideas about developing social sympathy through improved housing and services for workers and their families, influenced by the ideas of the philosopherCharles Fourier. In 1880 Godin created a cooperative association by which the workers owned and managed the complex. This continued until 1968.

On the 29th of August 1914 theBattle of St. Quentin (1914) was fought in and around the town. A memorial in Guise celebrates this event.
