Narbonne Languedoc - Roussillon

 |
|
Narbonne is a town in the Aude department
of the Languedoc-Roussillon region. Once a prosperous port, it
is now located about 15 km from the shores of the Mediterranean
Sea, due to relentless silting of the river Aude. Narbonne is
linked to the nearby Canal du Midi and the Aude River by the
tree-shaded Canal de la Robine, which runs through the centre
of town. To the north of the canal is the restored medieaval
quarter with elegant shops and restaurants. The town is dominated
by the huge complex of the Palais des Archeveques and the abandoned
Cathedrale St Just et St Pasteur. |

The provinces of Languedoc and Roussillon
stretch from the foothills of the Pyrenees on the Spanish border
to the mouth of the river Rhone. The region comprises Lozere,
Gard, Herault, Aude and the Pyrenees-Orientales. The area combines
miles of gentle coastline with a rugged inland, offering mountain
walks in the Haute Languedoc and high plateau of the Certagne
and acres of vineyards in the Corbieres and Minervois. The enduring
legacy of the Romans is evident in the great amphitheatre at
Nimes, while the abbeys of St Martin-du-Canigou, St Michel-de-Cuxa
and St Guilhem-le-Desert are superb examples of early Romanesque
architecture. |
