Carcassonne

Our next stop was Carcassonne, which sits above and beside the River Aude on a rock occupied since before the arrival of the Romans. The ramparts and fortifications that we can see today date from the 11th-14th centuries.

It has an outer wall and an inner wall, which made successful attacks on the city almost impossible. Their are great views of the city from the ramparts.

After Carcassonne, we left for a two night stay at Albi.Baca selengkapnya
