Product Info

Meet your guide at the Basilique Saint-Sernin and set off on a journey through Toulouse’s rich history. Learn how the city evolved from a Gallic settlement to a Roman outpost, and later became the capital of the Visigothic Kingdom.

Hear how Christianity shaped the city’s landscape, with major churches and monasteries like Saint-Sernin and Saint-Étienne. Discover how Toulouse gained political autonomy in the 12th century, becoming a powerful medieval commune.

Explore the city’s role in the Albigensian Crusade and the founding of the University of Toulouse. Learn about the city’s golden age in the 15th and 16th centuries, driven by the trade in pastel, a dye-producing plant.

See the magnificent townhouses, or hôtels particuliers, commissioned by wealthy merchants, Capitouls, and magistrates.

End your tour at Place du Salin, where you can reflect on the city’s history and its enduring legacy.
