Quai de l'Exil-Républicain-Espagnol, Riverfront in Toulouse, France

The Quai de l'Exil-Républicain-Espagnol extends along the Garonne River, providing pedestrian access and views across the water in central Toulouse.

Named in 2009, this riverfront commemorates Spanish Republicans who sought refuge in Toulouse during 1939 while fleeing from the Franco regime.

The location serves as a gathering point for French-Spanish cultural events, featuring performances by musicians and dancers throughout the year.
