Narbonne (Narbona in Catalan and in Occitan, the Roman Narbo) is a commune in southwestern France in the Languedoc-Roussillon région. It lies 849 km (528 mi) from Paris in the Aude département, of which it is a sous-préfecture. Once a prosperous port, it is now located about 15 km (9.3 mi) from the shores of the Mediterranean Sea. It is marginally the largest commune in the Aude département, although the préfecture (capital) resides in the slightly smaller commune of Carcassonne.
