France City: Frejus

The city of Frejus (Frejus) was an important marine base in the Romans (then he was called forum-Yulia), while there were more than 2 km of berths and was connected with a surrounded wall by a canal with the sea, which in those days was significantly closer.

After the battle of the acise (31 g. to N. NS.) Ships of the defeated fleet of Anthony and Cleopatra hid exactly here. The old town has long merged with the new quarters and went to the sea, and the port turned into one of the best yacht parking on the coast. Moreover, this process goes so quickly that Frejus is already merged with the town of Saint-Rafael, who during Caesar was the resort for veterans, and he, in turn, with the same old town of Buluris (Boulouris) in the East.
