Numerous artisans live and practise their art in our little region. They are coppersmiths, bronze-smiths, stone-cutters, monumental masons, marquetry-makers, cabinet makers, sculptors, engravers, gilders, lacquer artists, potters, ceramists, jewellery makers, producers of horn objects, wrought-iron artists, leather-clothing makers, feather workers, basket makers... Durfort, the village of copper, and Revel, the village of furniture, will provide a good opportunity for family outings.
On Saturday mornings, in Revel's covered market, considered one of the finest in the south of France, you can stock up on local cheeses, pork delicacies, honey, game....
In Revel, the town of fine furniture, you will also be able to visit a medieval "bastide" - or walled village - founded in 1342 by Philippe VI de Valois, at the foot of the Montagne Noire. Its octagonal shape and geometric construction make Revel, the archetypal bastide, an almost unique example of its type in France.
Built between 1666 and 1681, the Canal du Midi was originally intended for transporting merchandise between Toulouse and Sète. Now exclusively used for tourism, the site has been a designated a UNESCO World Heritage site since 1996, and abounds with outstanding attractions, among which are the numerous locks dotted all along its course between the Mediterranean and the Garonne river.
The Aude and the "black mountain" are the perfect place for lovers of art and history.
Our region is teeming with little medieval villages, and traces and remains of the Cathar period. The Pic de Nore is the highest point of the Montagne Noir (1210 m), the southern balcony of the Cévennes. The rounded shape of the Pic provides a very wide panorama over the Montagne Noire, the Monts de Lacaune, the Corbières, the Minervois plain, and the Canigou.
Nearby, where the Rieutort drops 90 meters from the top of the Sambrès plateau, which is made up of a mixture of schiste and gneiss, the Cubserviès waterfall is considered to be one of the highest in Europe.
Saved from destruction and then restored in a manner that was at times controversial, under the direction of Viollet-le-Duc in the 19th Century, the walled city of Carcassonne has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage site since 1997. Its 2,500 years of history make it the most popular sightseeing spot in the region.
A southern city with Spanish accents and Italian façades, Toulouse is dubbed the "pink city" due to the colour of the traditional local construction material: red bricks. Take a detour via Space City and you'll see that your marvelling children will be star-struck. Half Atlantic, half Mediterranean, the local gastronomy in Toulouse is a mixture of influences from Gascony and the Midi. Toulouse restaurants therefore serve the hearty, no-nonsense cuisine of the whole region in all its forms: foie gras, confit, duck breast, cheese-and-potato dishes such as truffade and aligot, gâteau à la broche (cone-shaped cakes cooked on a spit), croustade, and of course the famous cassoulet.
