Montreal is a very pretty city. Unfortunately, the road there is very busy. If you have a choice in your itinerary, try to avoid this section.

This small, ancient abbey is located just a few kilometers off the cycle path on the Canal dei MIDI. It was founded as a Benedictine monastery in the 8th century, but became a canonry in the 14th century when it was elevated to a diocese and the abbot was ordained bishop. The origins go back to Saint-Papoul, who came here as a student of Saint-Sernin of Toulouse and was martyred. Although it is in dire need of renovation, it is still worth a visit. Less crowded with tourists, it impresses with its stonemasonry by the Master of Capestany and its quiet atmosphere.

Perched on its rocky promontory at an altitude of 360 meters, Fanjeaux dominates the Lauragais meadow. The medieval city has been occupied since the Gallo-Roman era before becoming a powerful castle village in the 12th century. Its old neighborhoods bear witness to its rich historical heritage.
