Things to see and do Midi-Pyrénées

The urban promenade is pretty cool: walk through the streets of the city, visit its emblematic monuments, stroll on its squares, do why not a little shopping… Yet when you don't know anything about architecture, you often go next door to the most important here: the history of the city. If this is missing, go to the built heritage of Montauban with a speaker guide. The cathedral Notre-Dame-de-l'Assomption, the former college, the church of St. Jacques, the Pont-Vieux or the National Place will soon have no secrets for you!
