The Archbishops' Palace stands at the centre of Narbonne's old ecclesiastical power, beside the cathedral and the Roman Via Domitia. The complex has the weight of a fortified palace rather than a polite town hall.
Climb the donjon for the best view over Narbonne: the cathedral close by, the tiled roofs below, and the flat Languedoc landscape stretching out beyond the city. It is one of the clearest ways to get your bearings in town.
