Labourd, Historical province in Pyrénées-Atlantiques, France

The territory extends from the Pyrenees mountains to the Adour river, encompassing coastal areas along the Bay of Biscay and inland regions.

The region evolved from the Roman settlement of Lapurdum, which developed into the current city of Bayonne, serving as a strategic military outpost.

The region maintains strong Basque influences through its architecture, featuring buildings with red and white facades and traditional green shutters.

The area includes multiple communes accessible by road networks, with Bayonne functioning as the primary transportation and commercial center.

Local farmers cultivate Espelette peppers in specific soil conditions, following methods established through generations of agricultural practices.
