Bourbourg (French pronunciation: [buʁbuʁ]; West Flemish: Broekburg) is a commune in the Nord department in northern France.

In the second half of the 3rd century AD, the North Sea broke through the sand dunes to the Flemish coast in an event known as attributed to the second Dunkirk Transgression.

The Church Saint-Jean-Baptiste was founded by Clementia of Burgundy, Countess of Flanders, in 1100 and just south of the city a Benedictine monastery, (St Mary's Abbey) was established by her husband Robert II of Jerusalem.

Other interesting old buildings include the Gothic church (Eglise Saint-Jean-Baptiste), parts of which date from the thirteenth century, and whose choir shelters a huge installation by Anthony Caro called "The Chapel of Light"; the old Fishmarket (halle au poisson) which dates from 1587 and has twice-weekly fresh fish markets; and a 16th-century fortified farmhouse, the Manoir du Withof.

You can walk along the canal which skirts the old town walls built by Spanish king Philip II as part of his border defences for Flanders.
