The town of Lavaur retains a remarkable old centre, with its monuments, its walks, its gardens and its maze of old streets lined with houses where brickwork alternates with timber framing. Dominating the left bank of the Agout, deeply incised, the city combines the beauty of the site with the charm of a city in the South-West.

The Perfect French Stay For Your Family With Endless Activities on Your Doorstep | Villa Pastel
A short stroll from a charming village and French restaurant, Villa Pastel is a wonderful holiday home bordering the Tarn River, set in glorious gardens with a heated swimming pool and close to some of this region’s most beautiful towns, less than half an hour from rose-hued Toulouse.
Having undergone a recent extensive renovation, we love the contemporary interiors of this air-conditioned villa from its stylish décor and artwork to high-quality furnishings and fittings. The living, dining and kitchen space is bathed with light from sliding windows opening out to the terraces and garden whilst the games room downstairs is sure to provide hours of fun for every age including home-cinema and a 55-inch video screen (bring your own consoles!). Or you may just prefer the villa’s table-football, pool table, ping-pong and unique all-weather croquet pitch for games between family and friends.
Across the house and it’s self-contained apartment you will find six gorgeous bedrooms, each one featuring high-end bed linen and premium towels alongside an en suite bath or shower room. One of the doubles is part of a suite featuring a lounge with a sofa-bed, Smart TV and pretty terrace whilst a seventh bedroom can be created in the games room, allowing this brilliant abode to sleep up to 18 guests.
Amidst the two acres of gardens you can choose to bask in the luxury of the 6-person hot tub then relax your shoulders beneath the fountain in the 18m long heated swimming pool as kids paddle in the shallow end. There is ample room for al-fresco dining and relaxation or picnic by the century-old oaks in the landscaped grounds. The more active of guests can enjoy swing-ball, badminton and a leisurely game of boules.
Surrounded by orchards and woodland beyond, stroll down the country road and within 500m you will reach a bridge over the Tarn which leads you to a characterful village where you can enjoy home-cooked food in a popular restaurant. There’s a supermarket 2km away and further shops, restaurants and a lovely weekly market in Saint-Sulpice, under a 10-minute drive away.
Play golf or enjoy lunch out at the clubhouse of the championship golf course around 9km by car, then explore the nearby forest, classified as a Espace Naturel Sensible, for long walks and cycle rides, followed by a trip to its Maison de la Biodiversité to learn all about the forest’s rich flora and fauna.
Head to bustling markets in local villages – there’s one nearly every morning of the week in places such as Bessières, Villemur-sur-Tarn and Lavaur. Wine connoisseurs will be keen to visit the wineries in and around the magnificent town of Gaillac, home to France’s most historic vineyards that date back to pre-Roman times.
Albi and Cordes-sur-Ciel, both UNESCO World Heritage sites, complete the ‘Golden Triangle of Tarn’ and can be reached within an hour. Alternatively, stay slightly closer to home by hopping on a train from Saint-Sulpice to Toulouse for a day out in this beautiful city admiring its architecture, sailing down the Canal du Midi, soaking up the lively ambience by the banks of the Garonne and taking advantage of its vibrant restaurant scene.

Places to see in ( Dijon - France ) Notre Dame
Places to see in ( Dijon - France ) Notre Dame
The Church of Notre-Dame of Dijon is a Roman Catholic church in Dijon. Considered a masterpiece of 13th-century Gothic architecture, it is situated at the heart of the preserved old centre of the city. It is located in Place Notre-Dame, near the Palace of the Dukes of Burgundy and opposite the rue Musette.
Work on the church began around 1230.[1] The church contains the statue of Notre-Dame de Bon-Espoir, formerly called the Black Madonna. The church's decorations also include two symbols of Dijon: the jacquemart (bell-striking automaton) and the owl. The church was classified as a Monument Historique in the List of historic monuments of 1840. The chapel of the Assumption, the sacristy, and the gallery that links them have been listed as Monuments Historiques since 5 July 2002.
Before the second half of the 12th century, the site of today's Notre-Dame was occupied by a simple chapel, the chapelle Sainte-Marie, which was outside the city walls. Around 1150, this chapel was rebuilt in the Romanesque style. Then beginning around 1220, the people of Dijon built the Gothic church we see today on this site. It was located in the middle of a popular quarter, so there was a lack of space for the building. The architect, whose name is now unknown, employed numerous novel techniques. For example, all the weight of the framing and the roof rests on pillars rather than flying buttresses, thereby allowing the maximum floor area for the interior.
From the 18th century on, this church had admirers, including Vauban and Eugène Viollet-le-Duc. The latter wrote in his Dictionnaire raisonné de l'architecture française that Notre-Dame de Dijon was a masterpiece of reason. The church was restored from 1865 to 1884, by the Parisian architect Jean Charles Laisné and not by Viollet-le-Duc as has sometimes been incorrectly written. The work involved returning the church to what was thought to be its original appearance. To achieve this, later additions to the building were removed, the tower at the crossing was re-established as a lantern tower, and the ruined sculptures were remade.
The church has a Latin cross floor plan. The central space, flanked by columns, has three levels: six high arcades supported by cylindrical columns, then above that a triforium covered by slabs which serve as the floor to the third level, a gallery with high windows. Several historians have noted the originality of the western façade, in that it is much more planar than usual in French Gothic architecture. It is in effect a screen, 28.6 metres high by 19.5 m wide and 6.2 m deep. There are three levels. The lowest has three large arcades forming the entry into a porch whose vaults are supported by two rows of pillars. This porch has three doors opening into the nave. The doorway openings and the tympana used to be decorated with statues and sculptures, but these were destroyed in January 1794.
The 51 gargoyles (or grotesques) on the western façade are dummies, in that they are decorative rather than drain spouts. There are, however, functional gargoyles on the lateral walls of the church and the walls of the apse. According to the account of the monk Étienne de Bourbon, the original gargoyles were in place for only a short time: they were removed around 1240, following a fatal accident. A usurer was killed on the church forecourt as he was about to get married: a stone figure representing a usurer became detached and fell on him. His colleagues organised the destruction of all the dummy gargoyles on the façade, except for one at the upper right corner that survived until the 1960s, when it was replaced.
The clock with its jacquemart sits on a campanile rising from the base of the unbuilt south tower of the western façade. It has four metal automatons. Two of them, called Jacquemart and Jacqueline, sound the hours by striking a large bell with a hammer. The other two, their children, Jacquelinet and Jacquelinette, strike the quarter hours, each on a small bell.

Places to see in ( Bayonne - France ) Cathedrale Sainte Marie de Bayonne
Places to see in ( Bayonne - France ) Cathedrale Sainte Marie de Bayonne
The Cathedral of Saint Mary of Bayonne or the Cathedral of Our Lady of Bayonne (French: Cathédrale Sainte-Marie de Bayonne or Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Bayonne; Basque: Santa Maria katedrala or Andre Maria katedrala), commonly known as Bayonne Cathedral, is a Roman Catholic church in the town of Bayonne, France. It is the seat of the former Bishops of Bayonne, now the Bishops of Bayonne, Lescar, and Oloron. The cathedral is in the Gothic architectural tradition.
The site was previously occupied by a Romanesque cathedral that was destroyed by two fires in 1258 and 1310. Construction of the present cathedral began in the 13th century and was completed at the beginning of the 17th, except for the two spires which were not finished until the 19th century.
The structure has been much restored and refurbished, notably by Émile Boeswildwald, architect to the French government in the 19th century, and a pupil of Eugène Viollet-le-Duc. The cathedral stands on the Pilgrimage Way of Santiago de Compostela.
