During the 12th century, under their rich dynasty, troubadours, poets and scholars from all over the Mediterranean were regularly invited to the courtyard of the castle. It was then transformed into a citadel in 1226. Located at the top of a hill overlooking the Lower Town, it is attached to the Gallo-Roman wall. This massive building of 80 meters long and 40 meters wide is a real &#8220;fortress in the fortress&#8221; and is a beautiful testimony of medieval military architecture.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_hr-373523e22f0366b13a549278f1ad345e\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-av_hr-373523e22f0366b13a549278f1ad345e{\nheight:10px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-av_hr-373523e22f0366b13a549278f1ad345e hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-32  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_image '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_image-be0e1f0232704bc4cf05e02c23d4c129\">\n.avia-image-container.av-av_image-be0e1f0232704bc4cf05e02c23d4c129 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-av_image-be0e1f0232704bc4cf05e02c23d4c129 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-av_image-be0e1f0232704bc4cf05e02c23d4c129 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-33  el_after_av_hr  el_before_av_textblock '   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" class='wp-image-16209 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-16209 avia_image ' src=\"https:\/\/blog.ruedesvignerons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Comtal-castle.png\" alt='' title='Comtal Castle, Carcassonne'  height=\"320\" width=\"845\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" srcset=\"https:\/\/b1666302.smushcdn.com\/1666302\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Comtal-castle-300x114.png?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 300w, https:\/\/b1666302.smushcdn.com\/1666302\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Comtal-castle-450x170.png?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 450w, https:\/\/b1666302.smushcdn.com\/1666302\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Comtal-castle.png?size=600x227&amp;lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 600w, https:\/\/b1666302.smushcdn.com\/1666302\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Comtal-castle-705x267.png?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 705w, https:\/\/b1666302.smushcdn.com\/1666302\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Comtal-castle-768x291.png?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 768w, https:\/\/b1666302.smushcdn.com\/1666302\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Comtal-castle.png?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 845w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 845px) 100vw, 845px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-av_textblock-396ddf1f42196ca838231e61a4602801 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p style=\"text-align: center;\">Comtal Castle \u00a9 reddit.com<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_hr-373523e22f0366b13a549278f1ad345e\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-av_hr-373523e22f0366b13a549278f1ad345e{\nheight:10px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-av_hr-373523e22f0366b13a549278f1ad345e hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-35  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-av_textblock-396ddf1f42196ca838231e61a4602801 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The lapidary museum is part of the castle and can be visited in a self-tour.

style=\"text-align: justify;\">On the left bank of the Aude river, the &#8220;new city&#8221; was created by St. Louis. In 1257, he ordered the construction of a Lower Town under the medieval city intended to house the inhabitants and keep them away from the Trencavel. The city first develops commercially through the production and export of woollen sheets and supplants the City over the centuries.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Today called Bastide Saint-Louis, it is the commercial and residential city of Carcassonne. This fortified medieval town is organized according to the characteristic of a checkerboard plan, composed of narrow streets that intersect at right angles, gathering around Carnot square.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">From the medieval city, it will take you 25 minutes to walk to the Bastide. You will pass by the Old Bridge at the south-east entrance of the Bastide. It is now restricted to pedestrians and is an ideal sightseeing point, from which you can see the city and the Pyrenees on a sunny day. In addition, at night, beautiful lights make the bridge even more fascinating.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_hr-373523e22f0366b13a549278f1ad345e\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-av_hr-373523e22f0366b13a549278f1ad345e{\nheight:10px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-av_hr-373523e22f0366b13a549278f1ad345e hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-47  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_image '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_image-9fe214340bc0b9ff9c3b4280ba7571e5\">\n.avia-image-container.av-av_image-9fe214340bc0b9ff9c3b4280ba7571e5 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-av_image-9fe214340bc0b9ff9c3b4280ba7571e5 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-av_image-9fe214340bc0b9ff9c3b4280ba7571e5 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-48  el_after_av_hr  el_before_av_textblock '   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" class='wp-image-16212 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-16212 avia_image ' src=\"https:\/\/blog.ruedesvignerons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/old-bridge.png\" alt='' title='Old bridge, Carcassonne'  height=\"320\" width=\"845\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" srcset=\"https:\/\/b1666302.smushcdn.com\/1666302\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/old-bridge-300x114.png?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 300w, https:\/\/b1666302.smushcdn.com\/1666302\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/old-bridge-450x170.png?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 450w, https:\/\/b1666302.smushcdn.com\/1666302\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/old-bridge.png?size=600x227&amp;lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 600w, https:\/\/b1666302.smushcdn.com\/1666302\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/old-bridge-705x267.png?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 705w, https:\/\/b1666302.smushcdn.com\/1666302\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/old-bridge-768x291.png?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 768w, https:\/\/b1666302.smushcdn.com\/1666302\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/old-bridge.png?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 845w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 845px) 100vw, 845px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-av_textblock-396ddf1f42196ca838231e61a4602801 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p style=\"text-align: center;\">Old bridge \u00a9 zphoto.fr<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_hr-373523e22f0366b13a549278f1ad345e\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-av_hr-373523e22f0366b13a549278f1ad345e{\nheight:10px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-av_hr-373523e22f0366b13a549278f1ad345e hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-50  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-av_textblock-396ddf1f42196ca838231e61a4602801 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Carnot is the central square and the very heart of the Bastide. It is a pleasant pedestrian area lined with beautiful bourgeois buildings, plane trees, cafes, terraces and restaurants. It is a must-see if you visit Carcassonne. In the center of the square stands the monumental fountain with pink marble basins dedicated to Neptune, the king of the waters, made in 1770 by the Italian sculptor Barata.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It is the liveliest square of the Bastide and a real meeting area. This is where the market takes place on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday morning (fruits, vegetables, cheeses, wines&#8230;). During Christmas, the square becomes a large ice rink lined with chalets.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_hr-373523e22f0366b13a549278f1ad345e\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-av_hr-373523e22f0366b13a549278f1ad345e{\nheight:10px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-av_hr-373523e22f0366b13a549278f1ad345e hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-52  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_image '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_image-503da631ea7be6efdc99ea1633b3544f\">\n.avia-image-container.av-av_image-503da631ea7be6efdc99ea1633b3544f img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-av_image-503da631ea7be6efdc99ea1633b3544f .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-av_image-503da631ea7be6efdc99ea1633b3544f av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-53  el_after_av_hr  el_before_av_textblock '   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" class='wp-image-16213 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-16213 avia_image ' src=\"https:\/\/blog.ruedesvignerons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/carnot-square.png\" alt='' title='Carnot square, Carcassonne'  height=\"321\" width=\"845\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" srcset=\"https:\/\/b1666302.smushcdn.com\/1666302\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/carnot-square-300x114.png?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 300w, https:\/\/b1666302.smushcdn.com\/1666302\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/carnot-square-450x171.png?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 450w, https:\/\/b1666302.smushcdn.com\/1666302\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/carnot-square.png?size=600x228&amp;lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 600w, https:\/\/b1666302.smushcdn.com\/1666302\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/carnot-square-705x268.png?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 705w, https:\/\/b1666302.smushcdn.com\/1666302\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/carnot-square-768x292.png?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 768w, https:\/\/b1666302.smushcdn.com\/1666302\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/carnot-square.png?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 845w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 845px) 100vw, 845px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-av_textblock-396ddf1f42196ca838231e61a4602801 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p style=\"text-align: center;\">Fountain on Carnot square \u00a9 theculturetrip.com<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_hr-373523e22f0366b13a549278f1ad345e\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-av_hr-373523e22f0366b13a549278f1ad345e{\nheight:10px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-av_hr-373523e22f0366b13a549278f1ad345e hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-55  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-av_textblock-396ddf1f42196ca838231e61a4602801 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Nearby, on the Eggenfelden square, a covered-market bring together some fifteen traders who offer the best products of the region: poultry, meat, fish&#8230; They are right next to the old grain market.

vineyards, you can go to the Ch\u00e2teau of Pennautier, located at the gates of Carcassonne, at 5 kilometers. This castle is part of the Lorgeril group, a structure belonging to a historic wine growers\u2019 family in Languedoc since the 17th century. This family has a rich historical past and owns 6 wineries in the South of France, including the Ch\u00e2teau of Pennautier. The winery itself is a beautiful historic structure, with an on-site restaurant that offers splendid wine and food pairings.

The place is beautiful, and the winery is located at the heart of the vineyard. This historic winery already existed in the 17th century. It was bought in the late 1990s by the Rothschild family. This large family owns many wineries, including Grands Crus Class\u00e9s in Bordeaux. During the visit, you will discover its rich historical past. In addition, the winery offers an atypical workshop where you can discover the vineyard in SUV. This activity gives you a good overview of the different grape varieties and local terroirs and allows you to understand the organization of the vineyard.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_hr-373523e22f0366b13a549278f1ad345e\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-av_hr-373523e22f0366b13a549278f1ad345e{\nheight:10px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-av_hr-373523e22f0366b13a549278f1ad345e hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-88  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_image '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_image-04ca1d53ef0204dad1a4d9901d08c9d0\">\n.avia-image-container.av-av_image-04ca1d53ef0204dad1a4d9901d08c9d0 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-av_image-04ca1d53ef0204dad1a4d9901d08c9d0 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-av_image-04ca1d53ef0204dad1a4d9901d08c9d0 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-89  el_after_av_hr  el_before_av_textblock '   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" class='wp-image-16218 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-16218 avia_image ' src=\"https:\/\/blog.ruedesvignerons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Baronarques-en.png\" alt='' title='Domaine de Baronarques'  height=\"320\" width=\"845\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" srcset=\"https:\/\/b1666302.smushcdn.com\/1666302\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Baronarques-en-300x114.png?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 300w, https:\/\/b1666302.smushcdn.com\/1666302\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Baronarques-en-450x170.png?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 450w, https:\/\/b1666302.smushcdn.com\/1666302\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Baronarques-en.png?size=600x227&amp;lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 600w, https:\/\/b1666302.smushcdn.com\/1666302\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Baronarques-en-705x267.png?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 705w, https:\/\/b1666302.smushcdn.com\/1666302\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Baronarques-en-768x291.png?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 768w, https:\/\/b1666302.smushcdn.com\/1666302\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Baronarques-en.png?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 845w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 845px) 100vw, 845px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-av_textblock-396ddf1f42196ca838231e61a4602801 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p style=\"text-align: center;\">Baronarques winery, Limoux<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<div  class='avia-button-wrap av-av_button-de123122f71071f293bb58b4244b58ba-wrap avia-button-center  avia-builder-el-91  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_hr '><a href='https:\/\/www.ruedesvignerons.com\/en\/domaine\/523\/domaine-de-baronarques?utm_source=blog&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=carcassonne-english' class='avia-button av-av_button-de123122f71071f293bb58b4244b58ba avia-icon_select-no avia-size-small avia-position-center avia-color-theme-color' target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span class='avia_iconbox_title' >More infos<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_hr-373523e22f0366b13a549278f1ad345e\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-av_hr-373523e22f0366b13a549278f1ad345e{\nheight:10px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-av_hr-373523e22f0366b13a549278f1ad345e hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-92  el_after_av_button  el_before_av_textblock '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-av_textblock-396ddf1f42196ca838231e61a4602801 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p style=\"text-align: center;\">We wish you a pleasant discovery of Carcassonne and of the region!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n<div class=\"kk-star-ratings kksr-auto kksr-align-right kksr-valign-bottom\"\n    data-payload='{&quot;align&quot;:&quot;right&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;5193&quot;,&quot;slug&quot;:&quot;default&quot;,&quot;valign&quot;:&quot;bottom&quot;,&quot;ignore&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;reference&quot;:&quot;auto&quot;,&quot;class&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;count&quot;:&quot;23&quot;,&quot;legendonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;readonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;score&quot;:&quot;4.6&quot;,&quot;starsonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;best&quot;:&quot;5&quot;,&quot;gap&quot;:&quot;10&quot;,&quot;greet&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;legend&quot;:&quot;4.6\\\/5 -
