RAMPARTS AND LIGHTS

Presentation

In the footsteps of a visionary:

The new nighttime tour of the ramparts and the castle of Carcassonne is an extraordinary journey through the history and legends of the medieval city.

As soon as the sun sets, follow in the footsteps of the eminent Eugène Viollet-le-Duc, architect and restorer of the City, from the Porte Narbonnaise to the main courtyard of the Count's Castle. Accompany him on an odyssey through the towers and ramparts of the City, where he devoted nearly 35 years of his life.

Between a sound journey and a light show, REMPARTS ET LUMIÈRES is a unique immersive experience to discover the fortifications listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site after dark.

Follow the lights and discover the mysteries of the stones of Carcassonne.
