"A 240.129 km long, 2.25 to 2.50 m deep waterway, a 'bridge link' between the Mediterranean and the Atlantic, with 328 structures such as bridges - like the canal bridge over the Orb -, locks - like the 7 lock cascades of Fonserrannes -, tunnels, aqueducts, and 49 canal routes over streams and rivers, has been declared a cultural monument," according to the documentary from "Treasures of the World - Heritage of Humanity," a television series that introduces culturally interested viewers (in German) to World Heritage sites through short film clips. The episode about the CANAL DU MIDI is available in the ARD Mediathek at this link: => https://www.ardmediathek.de/video/schaetze-der-welt/gcanal-du-midi-frankreich-folge-224/swr/Y3JpZDovL3N3ci5kZS82OTg2NDg2

Beautiful location in Castelnaudary. Benches are placed all around so you can take a break in front of the large pool!

very beautiful city

At this special lock system there is also a mill with a small shop that sells products from the mill and the region. It's worth taking a look inside! We bought a spread with olive paste.

The German-language television series "Treasures of the World - Heritage of Humanity" honors special sites from all eras and continents in over 250 episodes with short film contributions, which, despite all their differences, have one thing in common: they have been declared World Heritage Sites by UNESCO. One of the episodes presents the CANAL DU MIDI. This is a connection - desired in the minds of many centuries, but also considered structurally impossible - between the southern coast of France on the Mediterranean and the vastness of the Atlantic Ocean. The episode mentioned is available in the ARD media library at the following link: => https://www.ardmediathek.de/video/schaetze-der-welt/gcanal-du-midi-frankreich-folge-224/swr/Y3JpZDovL3N3ci5kZS82OTg2NDg2

Beautiful little place with public drinking water, church, town hall, church and sculptures

A rest on the Basin, a relaxing place, and a visit to the Saint-Michel Collegiate Church in southern Gothic style, built between 1240 and 1270

Perched on its rocky promontory at an altitude of 360 meters, Fanjeaux dominates the Lauragais meadow. The medieval city has been occupied since the Gallo-Roman era before becoming a powerful castle village in the 12th century. Its old neighborhoods bear witness to its rich historical heritage.
