Cathedrale Sainte-Marie de Bayonne

Reviewed By JElliot32 - New South Wales, Australia

Bayonne's Cathedral, with its twin spires and surrounded by narrow streets really dominates the old part of this lovely city. While the Gothic cathedral is impressive from the outside (including the cloisters, the flying buttresses and the twin sprires - which in fact were not finished until the 19th century), it was the church's interior we found truly beautiful. Some superb stained-glass windows and exquisite wall paintings to be seen.

Monument aux Girondins

Reviewed By easterntreker - Halifax, Canada

We walked here from our hotel .The fountain and towering column was erected 1894 - 1902. Amazing status of sea horses and sculptures. The only negative is the amusement park spoiled some of the view.

Porte de Bourgogne

Reviewed By 750dimitrisl - Sydney, Australia

This arch is opposite the lovely Pont de Pierre, or Stone Bridge on the River Garonne. It's an 18th century construction and is meant to be a city Gate. Obviously it has a bit of history behind it as well. It looks quite nice and it is worth a stop for a few minutes.
