"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. ...

very pretty viewpoint, a real balcony overlooking the Pyrenees with the beautiful Cathar castle

Very nice and there were waffles and ice cream

Pass used during the 1st Narbonne-Gruissan stage of the Tour d'Occitanie 2023. Beautiful climb on both sides for this pass in the Montagne d'Alaric and a superb view of the Minervois plain and the Corbiéres.

Unique in its kind. So I'm surprised if you don't know Carcassonne.

Unique part of the city in the shape of a castle

Exceptional site of the Montagne Noire with its 4 castles, 40 caves and medieval village. Its history dates back to the Bronze Age and archaeological excavations continue in these places. The medieval complex includes 4 castles: Cabaret, Tour Régine, Surdespine and Quertineux, built on top of a rocky base; while the medieval village, the Castrum de Cabaret, is housed in the steep valley. For history buffs, visiting the village can easily keep you busy all day...
