    Square Gambetta is a large square in Carcassonne on the other side of the river Aude and the famous Cité. With this square begins the old walled city, built by King St. Louis of France: La Bastide de Saint Louis. Here you will have to look around to find the answer to our challenge to advance to the new location and learn the story of this place.

  • Chapelle Notre Dame de la Sante (Pass By)

    According to notarial acts, the little chapel Notre Dame de la Santé was built with money from the legacy of Jean de Saix, in 1527, as a hospital for those suffering from the plague. It was considered a faithful guard in that strategic location, the narrow passage between fortified buildings. Here you will have to look around to find the answer to our challenge to advance to the new location and learn the story of this place.

  • N/A (Pass By)

    At the foot of the Pont-Vieux, on the right bank of the Aude, a facade bears witness to this prosperous period for the city. Former home of a noble Carcassonnaise family, the building was bought in 1694 by someone close to Colbert who founded a cloth factory there. The latter will take the title of Manufacture Royale in 1696. The only building dating from this period, still visible, is the owners' residence. This construction is, in many ways, similar to those of the Lower Town dating from the 18th century. Here you will have to look around to find the answer to our challenge to advance to the new location and learn the story of this place.

  • N/A (Pass By)

    The church Saint-Gimer was built between 1854 and 1859, by architect Eugène Viollet-le-Duc.

Here you will have to look around to find the answer to our challenge to advance to the new location and learn the story of this place.

Here you will have to look around to find the answer to our challenge to advance to the new location and learn the story of this place.

  • Chateau et Remparts de la Cite de Carcassonne (Pass By)

    The present Romanesque cathedral started to be built in June 1096. A Lady Chapel was added in the early 15th century, adjoining the infirmary and chapel built by Bishop Radulph in the 1260s. The Château Comtal was built in the 12th century by Bernard Aton Trencavel over the western part of the Roman walls.

Loved finding out Carcassonne

Published on Jun, 2023

Loved walking around Carcassonne looking for clues and learning history. The story was a bit naff but I really enjoyed the experience. Had a bit of difficulty downloading the details but on- line chat soon sorted me out. From then it was plain sailing.
