Arques-la-Bataille (French pronunciation: [aʁk la bataj]) is a commune in the Seine-Maritime department in the Normandy region in north-western France.

After frequently changing hands, it came into the possession of the English, who were expelled in 1449 after an occupation of thirty years.

In 1589, its cannon decided the Battle of Arques in favour of King Henry IV of France.

The church of Arques, a building of the 16th century, preserves a stone rood screen, statuary, stained glass and other relics of the Renaissance period.

[3] Just outside the town is the World War I Commonwealth War Graves Commission cemetery, designed by J R Truelove, the final resting place of 377 men of the Chinese, West Indies, and South African Native Labour Corps.
