Carcassonne: a town, a city, a unique history... Carcassonne is a city in the Department of Aude, in the south of France, known worldwide for its medieval city, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1997. It is situated in a strategic place, along the road which connects the Mediterranean Sea with the Atlantic Ocean. It is one of the most touristy places in Occitanie, and renting a self-drive canal boat on the Canal du Midi to get to it is an unmissable experience!
