Go through time, and relive this period of transformation of the city which saw the completion of the construction of the cathedral, symbol of the power of the bishops. Explore with her the liveliest neighborhoods of the city while exploring its tumultuous past, including Albi's troubled period marked by the plague epidemic and the stalemate of the conflict with the English.

5.00As part of a seminar (between the end of the meeting and dinner), we had a quick, warm and very kind visit. Despite the cold of this evening, Perette took us on board and immersed us in an Albi that was foreign to us. The whole team was delighted, and saw no time pass. Thank you bcp (and congratulations for your singing talent)
