Narrow streets of the old town
Despite the fact that Toulon was badly damaged during the Second World War, among the few sights that miraculously survived are the streets of the city’s development from the time of King-Sun Louis XIV, with their charming squares and refreshing fountains.
Toulon Cathedral
You definitely should see the Toulon Cathedral (Sainte-Marie-de-la-Sède) - it was laid out back in the 11th century, but it was only opened under Louis XIV.
Streets of Algiers and Lafayette
Strolling at a leisurely pace is most enjoyable along the main streets of the historic part of the city - Algiers and Lafayette.
Toulon Harbor and Port
The harbor and port of Toulon are fascinating with an exotic atmosphere of bustling maritime activity, a wealth of charming cafés, shops and restaurants, as well as several sights, including the Clock Tower (once, the chimes marked the start and end of the sailors’ working day in the port) and the statue of the God of Navigation, locally bearing an inappropriate nickname: “the ass to the city.”
Opera House
In the so-called New City, you should see the magnificent Opera building.
