Few Medieval walled cities around the world survive quite the same as Carcassonne in the south of France, located on top of a hill overlooking the river and town below.
Settled since the prehistoric times and first fortified by the Celts, the military significance of this place was recognised for millenia. Today, it is a top tourist destination to see a walled city that transports you back to the Middle Ages.
Join me as I explore the fortifications both in day and night!
