One of the oldest castles in France, it now houses the works of local painter Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec.

Completed in the late 13th century, this fortress is one of the oldest castles in France! Over the course of its existence, the palace has undergone several changes. The main one took place between 1254 and 1357, with the installation of 7-metre-thick walls at the base, the construction of a massive keep and ramparts, and so on. Over the centuries, the bishops transformed the château into a covered pleasure residence with large salons, terraces and gardens. Today, the monument is a showcase for the works of local painter Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec.

Le Palais de la Berbie, situé juste derrière la majestueuse cathédrale Sainte-Cécile, est un lieu absolument magnifique. L’ensemble architectural est impressionnant, chargé d’histoire, et parfaitement préservé. Les jardins en terrasse offrent une vue splendide sur le Tarn, propice à la promenade et à la contemplation. C’est un endroit à ne pas manquer à Albi, aussi bien pour les passionnés d’histoire que pour les amateurs de beaux paysages. Un véritable bijou du patrimoine albigeois.

Fantastic French-style garden which flourishes at the foot of the majestic Palais de la Berbie. Located in the monument's former parade ground in the 17th century, it owes its existence to the first archbishop of Albi, Hyacinthe Serroni. Listed as a Remarkable Garden since 2010, one usually comes to enjoy its tranquility and its incredible panorama of the right bank of the Tarn, the Pont-Vieux, and the old mills ...
