Sightseeing

Amazing castle restoration. The market is wonderful on Saturdays in the 'Ville Bas'. Or book tickets to see top music acts performing in some stunning locations at the Festival du Carcassonne. The fireworks on July 14th are the best outside Paris but park at the Geant Cite 2 and walk in or you will be stuck in traffic for hours afterwards

Food Scene

Tuesday mornings is market day at Olonzac; go early to avoid the crush and make sure you buy some cheese from the stall just outside the church. Excellent goats cheese from the van just by the little art gallery Le Coin D'Art which is well worth a look
