BAYONNE

A town for art

Blest by exceptional heritage, BAYONNE is proud of the title “City of Art” which crowns her as the cultural capital of the Basque Country. Noteworthy: 15 century old defensive ramparts, the magnificent UNESCO classed cathedral and cloister, the protected “old town” and Chateau dungeons.

Founded in 1932, the annually growing number of celebrants and the distance they travel attest to its success and popularity.
