Tourism Palavas-les-Flots
In 1743, the construction of the Ballestras Redoubt led to the creation of this fishing village; the original site is today home to the Albert DUBOUT museum of humour. This famous cartoonist discovered Palavas-les-Flots in 1922 and quickly grew attached to its traditions, its fishermen, its beaches and its little steam train. Albert DUBOUT turned his incisive style into delightfully detailed humoristic cartoons which brought a tear of laughter to more than a few eyes. New exposition open from Tuesday to Sunday from 2 pm until 6pm.
