The history of the Cité de Carcassonne goes back over 2500 years, as it has always been a strategic geographical crossroads.

Today, it remains easily accessible by train, car or plane.

From the gîte, it's less than 5 minutes' walk to the medieval town center, where you can wander the narrow streets, enjoy a drink on the terrace or dine in one of its many restaurants, including 2 Michelin-starred ones.
