Port-Vendres is a natural harbor town located in southern France's Pyrénées-Orientales department, in the Occitanie region. This Mediterranean port town has a rich history dating back to ancient times when it was known as Portus Veneris (Port of Venus). The town's strategic location and deep-water port have made it an important commercial and fishing hub throughout history.
Port-Vendres showcases a blend of maritime heritage and cultural influences, particularly visible in its military architecture designed by Vauban in the 17th century. The town's cultural landscape was notably captured by Scottish artist Charles Rennie Mackintosh, who spent his later years here painting watercolors of the port and surrounding area.
Today, Port-Vendres maintains its character as a working fishing port while also serving as a gateway to the region's cultural and historical attractions.
