Hendaye, Border municipality in Pyrénées-Atlantiques, France.

Hendaye extends along the Atlantic coast at the mouth of the Bidasoa River, marking the boundary between France and Spain at 25 meters elevation.

The construction of Saint Vincent's church in 1598 established Hendaye's independence from Urrugne parish, leading to its development as a separate settlement.

The town square features a seventeenth-century stone cross with alchemical symbols, while Saint-Vincent church displays a thirteenth-century crucifix.

The railway station connects directly to Paris and Madrid, making Hendaye an international transportation hub for travelers crossing between France and Spain.

The Gothic Revival Château of Antoine d'Abbadie stands on the seafront, combining architectural elements with scientific facilities for astronomical research.
