Women in front Le Petit Moka bar restaurant at Town hall square. Narbonne. Pedestrian shopping street in old city central Narbonne. South of France. The ancient town of Narbonne has a number of interesting and historically important sites, and most of them handily located near the center of town, in easy walking distance. In addition to the historical "sites", the old town has a nice mixture of pedestrian shopping streets and long, narrow Medieval streets to walk through to discover the ancient doorways and old buildings. On a previous visit to Narbonne, we found the door to a 16th-century hotel particular (now private apartments) had been left purposely open so passers-by could see the beautiful interior. The interior had been nicely refurbished, with a pair of sculpted side-by-side doors. A resident encouraged us to walk all the way in to discover the ancient stairway balconies winding their way to the top. Narbonne, Occitan: Narbona, Latin: Narbo is a commune in southern France in the Languedoc-Roussillon region. It lies 849 km from Paris in the Aude department, of which it is a sub-prefecture. Once a prosperous port, and a major city in Roman times, it is now located about 15 km from the shores of the Mediterranean Sea. It is marginally the largest commune in Aude, although the prefecture is the slightly smaller commune of Carcassonne.
