Port Saint-Sauveur, River port and neighborhood in Toulouse, France.
Port Saint-Sauveur extends along the Canal du Midi with 60 berths, providing docking facilities for vessels traveling through southern France.
The port emerged in the early 19th century when Port Saint-Etienne reached capacity limits, leading to the construction of 150 meters of new quays.
A Franciscan sisters orphanage opened in 1862 at Port Saint-Sauveur to care for children of canal workers navigating the waterways.
The port administration operates from April onwards, offering water, electricity, sanitary facilities, and fuel services for boats passing through Toulouse.
The navigation accélérée service introduced in the 1830s allowed vessels to travel at 11 kilometers per hour using three-horse relay systems.

Toulouse offers numerous locations for photography beyond its main attractions. The Renaissance courtyards of Hôtel d'Assézat, the gardens of Raymond VI, and the converted water tower of Château d'Eau present architectural interest. The Garonne riverbanks, including Quai de la Daurade and Port Saint-Sauveur, provide water views. Historic buildings like Hôtel Dieu Saint-Jacques and La Grave show the city's architectural heritage. Gardens and parks such as Grand Rond and Prairie des Filtres add natural elements to urban photographs.
