Tips from the Community
For years I have been passing by you, you whose age is immeasurable. Some would call you venerable (I will have to look up the dictionary to determine whether or not I am included in this group). What I do know is that you existed long before me, and I hope you will exist long after me.

Picturesque village, village of art and culture, village of books. Don't miss following the Chemin de Saint-Roch for its capitelles (dry stone shelters), its panoramas, the remarkable cypresses of the Chapelle Saint-Roch.

This small, ancient abbey is located just a few kilometers off the cycle path on the Canal dei MIDI. It was founded as a Benedictine monastery in the 8th century, but became a canonry in the 14th century when it was elevated to a diocese and the abbot was ordained bishop. The origins go back to Saint-Papoul, who came here as a student of Saint-Sernin of Toulouse and was martyred. Although it is in dire need of renovation, it is still worth a visit. Less crowded with tourists, it impresses with its stonemasonry by the Master of Capestany and its quiet atmosphere.

Located in the heart of the Cathar country (between Carcassonne and Toulouse), the abbey-cathedral of Saint-Papoul has a rich history, dating back more than a millennium. Listed as a historic monument since 1840, it was partly rebuilt in the 17th century.
