beautiful old town - not to be missed

"A 240.129 km long, 2.25 to 2.50 m deep waterway was declared a cultural monument as a "bridge" between the Mediterranean and the Atlantic with 328 structures such as bridges - such as the canal bridge over the Orb -, locks - such as the 7 lock cascades of Fonserrannes -, tunnels, aqueducts and 49 canals over streams and rivers." says the documentary from "Treasures of the World - Heritage of Humanity", a television series that brings culture-loving viewers closer to world cultural heritage sites with short film contributions (in German). The episode about the CANAL DU MIDI is available in the ARD media library under this link: => https://www.ardmediathek.de/video/schaetze-der-welt/gcanal-du-midi-frankreich-folge-224/swr/Y3JpZDovL3N3ci5kZS82OTg2NDg2

I'm following up on Paul's comment: Yes, the canal is a great immersion in history and the region However, don't hesitate to make a few forays outside the canal... we made a detour via Revel going up the channel, then climbed a little on the mountain, and it was also very nice. In summer, the canal is very busy...

Pedaling along the Canal du Midi near Marseillette will transport you back in time to the 17th century. This historic waterway, a masterpiece of engineering, winds through picturesque countryside, offering stunning views of vineyards, rolling hills and charming villages. You can explore the canal’s locks, admire ancient bridges and visit the historic cities of Carcassonne and Narbonne.

Interesting lock with numerous creations by the lock keeper, some of which can also be purchased!

They are nice to see how their opening

Very picturesque city full of history
