Medieval city of Mirepoix

The bastide of Mirepoix is ​​located in the Cathar Pyrenees Country, labeled Country of Art and History.
The town was rebuilt according to the regular bastide plans after a major flood in 1289. The square has retained its original medieval structure. You will be able to observe its XNUMXth century cutlery and superb half-timbered houses on wooden galleries.
Mirepoix is ​​famous for the Maison des Consuls decorated with carved pieces of wood, and for its old Saint Maurice cathedral and its impressively large nave (22 m wide). Very attractive, Mirepoix offers many activities from April to November (Les Historical festivals, the MIMA puppet festival, the potters' market, the apple festival...).
Not to be missed under any circumstances: the big market on Monday morning! You will enjoy strolling between the stalls in a friendly and colorful atmosphere.
