Harry's Free Tour of Toulouse

So, you understand English, like the "Free Tour" format and are in Toulouse, most likely on Vacation. You'll be looking for me then! ;) I've lived here 20 years now and have spent quite a lot of that time trying to write an Historical Fiction of this city. What does that mean for you? It means I've studied its History with a passion and have always regarded its Historical events through the lens of "How could this event best be told in narrative form?" Which is what I do. I tell stories. True stories of things that actually happened here in Toulouse. But stories, nevertheless.

On this Tour you will see…

Place du Capitole Rue Saint Rome Hotel Assezat Pont Neuf La Daurade and la Basilique Les Jacobins Rue de Taur La Basilica St Sernin And, although the History stuff does tend to wander I try to make its telling as linear as possible.

I will cover…

Medieval Toulouse The Cathars The Albigensian Crusade The Inquisition The Canal du Midi The Revolution in Toulouse The Great Flood of 1875 and a lot more…

I won't leave you ignorant either as to where is best to eat and drink in town and what other things there are to do. I look forward to seeing you on the Tour.
