Medieval Carcassonne

The castle is a fifteen minute walk from our apartment, uphill, but worth it. It dates back to the Romans and has been rebuilt many times over the years and rescued from ruin in the 19th century. There is a small city within the walls,shops and restaurants even a couple of hotels.

Every year on Bastille Day they hold a massive fireworks display from the castle which by all accounts, is spectacular.
