Typical house of the medieval period, one of the oldest houses of Albi located in the Castelnau district
This typical house from the medieval period - today the headquarters of the Association for the Safeguarding of Old Alby - is one of the oldest houses in the city. Located in the Castelnau district, it combines bricks and wood panelling and is characterized by its open-air attic or soleilhou (where, among other things, woad was dried), its half-timbering and its corbelling (a floor reserved for housing that overhangs the street to gain more space). It offers exhibitions and slide shows on the history of local life.

La Maison du Vieil Alby 81000 Albi
La maison du vieil Alby mérite réellement le détour car ses greniers ouverts sont curieux à voir. Surtout n'hésitez pas à y aller, cette maison est en centre ville, proche de l'Office de Tourisme.

Magnifique
Très belle demeure située dans le Viel Alby, avec colombages, très bien restaurée. La visite explique bien les traditions locales, comme le séchage des feuilles de tabac.
