What to do in Carcassonne?
In 2 days
1 week
As a family
Start by visiting the city of Carcassonne, a first-class medieval architectural ensemble, then the château comtal, from which you can access the ramparts and in which an exhibition abut the restoration of the city during the 19th century is held year-round. Another unmissable location is the Saint-Nazaire Basilica, a church of Romanesque origin. In the evening, visit the open-air Jean Deschamps theater. For your last day in the area, venture outside the city to enjoy the region's landscapes.
While staying at our Campanile hotel, you will have plenty of time to discover the architectural wonders of Carcassonne. We recommend that you take a tour of the St. Louis Bastide to enjoy its pedestrian streets lined with many shops. You can also stroll along the banks of the famous Canal du Midi, connecting the Mediterranean Sea to the Atlantic Ocean and UNESCO World Heritage listed in 1996. Finally, be sure to visit the city's Museum of Fine Arts as it houses some wonders, including a telescope used by Napoleon during his return trip from the island of Elbe in 1815.
The municipality of Carcassonne doesn’t forget kids so that the whole family can enjoy an unforgettable stay. Tours of iconic landmarks are well-oriented for both adults and children, offering original and playful activities for kids’ enjoyment. The city has a large multiplex cinema called Cap’Cinéma which, as well as its 9 movie theaters, also has bowling, a skating rink and play center for the kids’ enjoyment. The city also boasts a wide range of green spaces. We recommend you visit the charming garden of Maria-and-Pierre-Sire or the André-Chenier Garden for some family time-out.
Top 3 gastronomic experiences in Carcassonne
Carcassonne Cassoulet
You probably already know traditional cassoulet, which is composed of white dried beans with meat. But don’t miss the opportunity, during your stay at the Campanile restaurant, to taste the Carcassone version of cassoulet, which contains red partridge and a piece of duck. With Toulouse (where confit duck and Toulouse sausage are added), and Castelnaudary, the three cities argue about the origin of this hearty dish. There is even an Ariégoise variant: mongetada.Micheline and Orkina
Lemon balm, cardamom, nutmeg, and various plants and spices make up Carcassonne’s second emblem. Featuring the city’s famous ramparts on the bottle, explore a drink that dates back to the 4th century: Micheline. Its production was resumed at the end of the 19th century, after the discovery, during some archaeological digs, of its composition on a parchment. Orkina is a herbal and spice liquor you should taste as an aperitif.Snails à la languedocienne
If you love molluscs, you can seize the opportunity during your stay in the medieval city of Carcassonne to sample a particular specialty of Languedoc: snails à la languedocienne! These are simmered in a sauce with raw ham, fresh anchovies, ripe tomatoes, walnuts, herbs (a bouquet of thyme, laurel, etc.), some garlic and sometimes some hard-boiled eggs. This recipe could change your mind about snails!
Events in Carcassonne
July 14
Make the most of your visit to our Campanile hotels with a visit to the famous blaze of the medieval city, one of the most spectacular firework displays in the whole of France. All fireworks can be grandiose and put stars in the eye of the whole family, but those in Carcassonne are particularly impressive. In addition to this traditional show, you can also have the opportunity to see projections and light shows on the famous ramparts.Summer festivals
Carcassonne Festival, which takes place throughout the summer, has become a highlight of the cultural life of Southern France. With over 120 shows on offer, this event hosts thousands of spectators every year in a privileged setting and sometimes unique locations. When the summer reaches its end, the city beats to the rhythm of the Carcassonne féria with salsa, flamenco, occitane music, tango, and other popular songs.Nos destinations par thématique dans la région
