Narbonne

The Canal de la Robine defines the setting of Narbonne — its tree-lined course runs through the old centre, giving the former Roman port a waterside rhythm of quays, bridges and café terraces. Founded as Narbo Martius in 118 BC, the city stood on the Via Domitia, Rome’s route through southern Gaul; a preserved section of the road lies beside the Archbishop’s Palace. That palace and the unfinished Gothic Cathedral of Saint-Just-et-Saint-Pasteur dominate the historic core, while Les Halles covered market remains central to local food culture. Beyond town, the canal continues toward coastal lagoons and the Mediterranean, with the Corbières hills rising to the west.
