"Carcassonne, located in southern France between Montpellier and Toulouse, was founded in the 6th century BC by Iberian Celts. The Romans transformed the hill into a fort by building a defensive wall. In the 5th century, the Visigoths conquered the city, followed by the Arabs in the 8th century, who were expelled by Pepin the Short in 759. In the 12th century, Count Trencavel built a castle on top of the Roman city wall at the highest point of the hill. Carcassonne became a central element in the defense system on France's border with Aragon. In the mid-13th century, the dilapidated wall was protected by a second, outer city wall." This is how the website for the television series "Treasures of the World – Heritage of Humanity" describes the city, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. ...

Unique part of the city in the shape of a castle

You will find yourself here at the foot of the ramparts of this major site, considered one of the most important medieval towns in Europe. From there you can continue to the Porte Narbonnaise a few meters away. I saw a cyclist come in through that door and ride through the city. But in truth, this is not of much interest, unless your thing is to ride on cobblestones while slaloming between tourists. It is undoubtedly preferable to stop at the ramparts, and even better to dedicate a leisurely sightseeing tour on foot to this exceptional fortified city.

The oldest document concerning the bridge dates back to 1184. Roger Trencavel authorized the inhabitants of the city to build a new bridge on the condition that they covered the cost. By his will, in 1194, he only retained the principle of his toll tax which he limited to an annual payment of two measures of wheat. This bridge, built in around ten years, had to be made of wood. Jacques-Alphonse Mahul pointed out that the bridge referred to in this act must have been the king's mill bridge which was on the old arm of the Aude. The Albigensian Crusade must have led to the destruction of this bridge. The inhabitants of Carcassonne return after a seven-year exile. The king had the town which surrounded the ramparts destroyed, the Aude diverted, and the marshes drained. Louis IX authorized the inhabitants to build the lower town. A new bridge is needed. At the beginning of the 14th century, the king authorized the inhabitants to build a stone bridge.

The Fresquel lock is in reality a series of locks: a first double structure followed by a single one. There are therefore three pools, each with a separate guard house. The locks were formerly lined with plane trees. Today, cyclists with allergies can cycle with complete peace of mind!
