Sète is a port city situated in southern France, between the Mediterranean Sea and the Étang de Thau, a saltwater lagoon. Known as the "Venice of Languedoc" due to its network of canals, the city has a rich maritime heritage and a strong cultural identity.

The city was founded in the 17th century during the construction of the Canal du Midi and has since developed into an important fishing port and commercial harbor.

Sète has a significant artistic legacy, being the birthplace of notable French poets Paul Valéry and Georges Brassens, both of whom are celebrated in local museums. The city's cultural scene is marked by its traditions, including water-jousting tournaments that date back to 1666, which continue to be held during local festivals. The city's museums and cultural institutions reflect both its maritime history and its contribution to French arts and literature.
