Artists such as Gustave Courbet, Eugène Boudin, Claude Monet and Johan Barthold Jongkind depicted these charming ports, contributing to the emergence of the Impressionist movement. The Vieux Bassin was created between 1681 and 1684, replacing an old tidal port located inside the city walls. The basin covers approximately one hectare and is surrounded by accessible docks, including this one.
