Toulouse: Free Tour of the Pink City Centre

Explore the heart of the Ville Rose on this friendly tour. From famous monuments to architectural secrets, experience Toulouse's history through its unmissable landmarks.

The tour begins at Toulouse's Capitole, the very heart of the city. In this famous square, you'll discover the history of this emblematic building and the unique atmosphere of this central location, which has been the hub of Toulouse's political and cultural life for centuries.

We'll continue on to the Basilique Saint-Sernin, a major masterpiece of Romanesque art and a must-see stop on the road to Santiago de Compostela. Admire its remarkable architecture and understand the importance of this sanctuary in the region's religious and cultural history.

The tour continues at the Jacobins Convent, a jewel of Southern Gothic architecture. Inside, the impressive "palm tree" column illustrates the boldness and ingenuity of medieval builders.

We'll then take time to stroll along the Garonne, whose banks offer magnificent views over the city.

The tour concludes at the elegant Hôtel d'Assézat, a splendid Renaissance townhouse. This monument bears witness to the golden age of woad cultivation, when Toulouse prospered thanks to the trade in this dye plant.
