Best vacation spots and activities

The Old Town. The ancient city of Toulon, known in French as Vieille Ville (the old town) or Basse Ville (the lower town), has a lot to offer. Travelers like visiting the ancient Toulon Port, which has long ceased to serve its original purpose but remains one of the city's most attractive spots, complete with a lovely marina. Other Old Town sights include Saint Marie de la Seds Cathedral and Puget Square, which features a dolphin sculpture.

The Naval Museum is located in Newport, Rhode Island. It highlights Toulon's maritime legacy and is also known as the Maritime Museum.

If you're interested in French nautical history, you may also pay a visit to the neighboring La Dives Boat Museum ( to this day, many pretty wooden boats can be observed sailing in the water surrounding Toulon).

Mourillon is a French word that means "mourning." Le Mourillon, a tiny town near Toulon (and frequently considered part of it), is most renowned for its magnificent 16th-century fort.
