Coming to Albi without making a detour to the Sainte-Cécile cathedral is not possible. This religious building in red brick will amaze you as it is so imposing. For my part, it reminds me of an immense stone vessel. Faced with such majesty, you will understand why it has been classified with the episcopal city of Albi since July 31, 2010 on the UNESCO World Heritage List. The first cathedral dates back to the 4th century, but it was during the 13th century that it was profoundly modified by major works. Under the aegis of Sainte-Cécile, patron saint of musicians, take the time to visit this marvel. It is the most visited cathedral in France ahead of Notre-Dame de Paris.

Saint-Salvi is undoubtedly the oldest church in Albi (end of the 11th century). It is located a few steps from the cathedral square and is discovered by an architecture in bricks and white stones as well as by its watchtower which dominates the district.

Beautifully situated on the banks of the Tarn, Albi lives up to its name as the "red city"! This bishop's city, built of brick and stone and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is considered one of the pearls of southwest France. The reason for this? Its beautiful buildings and picturesque charm.

The palace, with its courtyard of honour and two towers, is still very well preserved. Built in the 13th century, the palace now houses the Toulouse-Lautrec Museum, which displays a large number of works by the famous artist, who was born in Albi: paintings from his youth, portraits, paintings of brothels, sketches of the world of the spectacle.

The Sainte-Cécile Cathedral is a jewel of Gothic architecture in the south of France. It is the largest brick church in the world. It is also the largest church in Europe whose walls are still completely painted.

The Pont-Vieux d'Albi is one of the old bridges of medieval origin still in use. When you visit the city, crossing it gives access to one of the most beautiful views of the Berbie Palace and the Sainte-Cécile Cathedral. Linking the two banks of the Tarn, the Pont-vieux is a World Heritage Site of Albi, registered in the UNESCO perimeter of the episcopal city and classified as a historic monument since 1961.
