Nîmes, in the Occitan part of Southern France. It was once the capital of the Volcae Arecomici, a Celtic people, & was considered the most Roman town outside of Italy.

Erzurum, in North-East Türkiye, which was once called Theodosopoulos, when it was still part of the Roman or the Byzantine Empire.

Rumburk, Czech Republic, where in the Baroque Loreto chapel there is a black Madonna, one of many scattered around Europe. One of the most famous is the 14th-century Black Madonna of Częstochowa in Poland, which I actually saw in 2012 at the monastery where this perhaps Byzantine icon was kept.

Weymouth, a town in southern England (a seaside town at the mouth of the River Wey) (and where I worked in a show last Christmas).
