The castle and walls of Carcassonne are part of one of the best-preserved medieval citadels in Europe. Immerse yourself in its fascinating history when you reserve this ticket.
The legendary, impenetrable fortress of Carcassonne was the scene of fierce confrontations between the French and Aragonese in their struggle to control this strategic area during the Middle Ages.
Your ticket to this historic fortress allows you to visit the Romanesque Chapel of the Bastion, the Machicolations (galleries from which projectiles and other weapons were dropped on enemies), and the Barbican, a defensive gateway above the moat.
The entrance also includes access to the citadel's ramparts. You can take a stroll, at your own pace, around the walled perimeter of the medieval city, exploring the different towers and battlements of the enclosure. From the top, you'll also enjoy extraordinary views of the Aude river valley.
If you gaze down from the ramparts, you'll see the beautiful historical city center of Carcassonne, featuring the elegant Saint-Nazaire basilica and the majestic Narbonne Gate.
