Travel Tips for Collioure
History of Collioure
by grayfo
Collioure used to be divided into two villages separated by the Douy river, the old town named Port d'Aval (today known as Le Faubourg) in the south and the upstream port, Port d'Amont (the actual La Ville). Collioure was taken in 1642 by the French troops of Maréchal de la Meilleraye. A decade later, the town was officially surrendered to France by the 1659 Treaty of Pyrenees. Because of its highly strategic importance, the town's fortifications, including the Fort Saint-Elme stronghold, were improved by the military engineer Vauban during the reign of Louis XIV. Nevertheless, Collioure was besieged and occupied by the Spanish troops in 1793, which was the last Spanish attempt to take the city. The blockade was broken a year later by general Jacques François Dugommier.

by DPando
its very good loose oneself for the small streets full of flowers in the balconies. its for me a special town , always with a lot of people but also quiet streets with no one. Above all its so impressive their colorful that all the town show

Commune de 1302 hectares, Collioure a eu autrefois une superficie plus importante, puisque, jusqu'en 1823, elle comprenait aussi le territoire de Port-Vendres. Elle s'étend depuis les Albères, avec l'ermitage de N.D. de Consolation et un maquis où dominent le chêne vert, le chêne liège et les pins, jusqu'à la Côte Vermeille ; le port de Collioure (avec son château royal et son église au curieux clocher) est protégé par diverses constructions militaires, la plus connue et la mieux conservée étant le fort Saint-Elme.
