Itinerary

• 1st stop

  Place de l'Hôtel de Ville and Via Domitia

  We start on the square where Narbonne still lives its daily life, right above the stones of the Via Domitia, the Roman road that once linked Italy to Spain. Children spot the paving under their feet while we introduce the city and set an easy pace for the walk.

• 2nd stop

  Roman Horreum

  Below street level, the Roman Horreum opens into a small network of underground galleries used for storage in the first century BC. We walk through them together and explain how goods arrived by river and by road, with plenty of questions to keep younger guests involved.

• 3rd stop

  Archbishops' Palace

  We cross to the Archbishops' Palace, the fortified residence that today houses the town hall and the city museums. Its facades and courtyards help us tell the story of medieval Narbonne, when the archbishops held both spiritual and political power.

• 4th stop

  Cathedral of Saint-Just-et-Saint-Pasteur

  The Cathedral of Saint-Just-et-Saint-Pasteur rises above the old town with its ambitious Gothic lines. We look at the tall choir, the stone details, and the unfinished plan that makes this building so unusual, keeping the explanations short and visual for families.

• 5th stop

  Cathedral Cloister

  In the cathedral cloister the children take over with a small observation game: they hunt for carved details, animals, and hidden faces in the Gothic arcades. It is a calm, shaded stop where we slow down and let them look closely at what most visitors walk past.

• 6th stop

  Pont des Marchands

  The Pont des Marchands is one of the few bridges in France with houses built directly on it. We cross the Canal de la Robine here and talk about the traders who once used this crossing, a short stop that children usually remember for its strange, top-heavy silhouette.

• 7th stop

  Canal de la Robine

  Along the Canal de la Robine the city opens up, with boats, plane trees, and the waterway system that once made Narbonne a trading port. We walk at an easy pace and use the canal to explain how the city stayed connected to the sea and to the wider canal network.

• 8th stop

  Les Halles de Narbonne

  Our walk ends at Les Halles de Narbonne, the covered market in the heart of the city. Guests who wish can stay on for an optional tasting of local specialties; food and drinks are not included in the tour price, so everyone is free to choose.

• 9th stop

  She-Wolf and Forum

  We close the route with the she-wolf and the forum, the last piece of Narbonne's Roman story on our path. It is a short, easy stop where we look back at everything we have seen and invite the children to name their favorite discovery of the day.
