About Bayonne
Bayonne is a Basque city where the Nive meets the Adour, known for its Gothic cathedral, cured ham, chocolate and a summer festival of white and red.
Bayonne grew where the Nive flows into the Adour, a few kilometres from the Atlantic, in the French Basque Country. The Gothic cathedral of Sainte-Marie rises over Grand Bayonne, the oldest quarter, while across the Nive the lanes of Petit Bayonne are lined with timbered houses and coloured shutters. Vauban's ramparts circle the city.
