The first city founded by the Romans in Gaul, Narbo Martius (Narbonne) played a leading commercial role under the Roman Empire. Its port, built under the domination of Rome, encouraged trade with the Mediterranean world, while the Via Domitia strengthened trade with southern Gaul and Spain. The Via Domitia is a Roman road built from 118 BC to connect Italy to the Iberian Peninsula by crossing Narbonne Gaul. The Via Domitia was created from 118 BC at the instigation of the Roman general Cneus Domitius Ahenobarbus, whose name it would bear. This road was to ensure communications with Rome and allow the founding of garrisons to protect cities that had become Roman. https://www.amisdesmusees-narbonne.org/la-via-domitia

A very nice little place with lots of tourists, boats and cyclists. A typical stopover for many.

The cathedral is closed at lunchtime, it is a very unusual building as the nave was never built!

I recommend this little port of Somail with an old bookstore which is worth the detour.....
