A city of art and history
In the south-west of France, in the Midi-Pyrénées region, lies the magnificent city of Montauban, known for its rich heritage and the lifestyle of its inhabitants. Labelled "City of Art and History", Montauban invites you to stroll through its old medieval streets and discover its historic monuments. Ancient buildings with classical architecture bear witness to its eventful past marked by the plague, the Hundred Years War and its emergence as one of the strongholds of Protestantism.
Among these precious vestiges, we find the church of Saint-Jacques, built in the 13th century, the famous Old Deck or the national place. Art lovers can take a tour of the Ingres Museum, which houses numerous collections of paintings and sculptures by famous artists such as Jean-Auguste-Dominique-Ingres and Antoine Bourdelle.
Immerse yourself in the heart of Montauban
The river Tarn also offers you the possibility of opting for a yacht charter in Montauban, an opportunity that will allow you to engage in many fun activities: mountain bike rides, hikes on foot or on horseback along the banks or water activities such as canoeing and kayaking across the river.
Between two walks, don't forget to take time to sample some Montalbanais specialties such as apple crumble and duck breast. If you love nature, you will never tire of hiking along the trails that will allow you to admire the flora and fauna on the hillsides of Corbarieu. The more adventurous can try their hand at climbing, paragliding or windsurfing. Looking for entertainment during your stay? Montauban invites you to come in July, for the big Montauban en Scène festival, featuring several open-air shows.
