Article History

La Seyne-sur-Mer, town, Var département, Provence–Alpes–Côte d’Azur région, southeastern France, a southwestern industrial suburb of Toulon. The town is located on Cape Sicié, which forms the Toulon roadstead in the Mediterranean and contains naval shipyards. Its Balaguier Fortress was built in the 17th century as part of the defenses of Toulon and houses a naval museum. La Seyne was long dependent on the shipbuilding industry, but the shipyards closed in 1986. Metalworking remains important, and there is some light industry. Pop. (1999) 60,188; (2014 est.) 64,675.
