Saint-Raphaël, Var

Saint-Raphaël (; (オック語:Sant Rafèu)) is a commune in the Var department in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region in southeastern France.
Immediately to the west of Saint-Raphaël lies another, older, town called Fréjus, and together they form an urban agglomeration known as Fréjus Saint-Raphaël. The Var lies in the region called Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, often abbreviated to PACA.
In the second half of the nineteenth century the township came under the influence of mayor Felix Martin and writer Alphonse Karr, and owing to their efforts and its beneficial climate the commune developed into a seaside resort popular with artists, sportsmen and politicians.
It is the headquarters of the Fréjus Saint-Raphaël ''canton'', which is the economic and cultural center of eastern Var and lies in the arrondissement of Draguignan. Its inhabitants are called ''Raphaëlois'' in French generally, or ''Rafelencs'' in Provençal Occitan.
==History==
In 1799 Napoleon Bonaparte and his forces arrived by ship from Egypt, prior to his ''coup d'état'' in Paris, and landed at a fishing village that was the ''commune'' of Saint-Raphaël.
The coastal double-track rail link between Saint-Raphaël and Nice passes over a substantial viaduct constructed right on the shoreline at Anthéor. These tracks were of strategic importance to the Axis forces during World War II for supplying material to units in France.
There were three separate air raids made on this viaduct from England, between September 1943 and February 1944, involving a total of thirty-one Lancaster bombers operating some seven hundred miles from base. Aircraft of the second raid flew on to Rabat, and from the third raid on to Sardinia. One Lancaster from the first raid was lost, and a flight lieutenant bomb aimer on the third raid was killed by enemy fire, some of which came from ships at sea. All the raids failed in their objective and the rail link was not severed.〔http://www.dambusters.org.uk/antheor.htm〕
During World War II, on August 15, 1944, it was one of the sites of a beach landing in Operation Dragoon, the Allied invasion of southern France.
