Toulon

Travel to Toulon

With a long military history, the town of Toulon remains the most important Mediterranean naval base in France. This is also a sporty town, rugby being particularly dear to its inhabitants.

The impressive military arsenal which is still in use today is over 500 years old, although it was reinforced by Vauban, Louis XIV's military engineer in 1700. It covers an area of 268 hectares, with 10 kilometres of quays, and employs almost 12,000 people. Although the naval base is not open to the public, in summer you can take a boat tour from the marina with a knowledgable tour guide.
