Heritage of Albi
Albi’s UNESCO-listed Episcopal City is defined by its unique Languedoc brick architecture, which earned it the nickname "The Red City." This historic ensemble centers on the massive, fortress-like Cathedral of Saint Cecilia and the Palais de la Berbie, one of the world's oldest bishop's palaces. The district spans the medieval bridge over the Tarn and includes timber-framed Renaissance houses and fortified religious sites dating back to the aftermath of the Albigensian Crusade.
