Foix - France
Welcome to Foix
Foix (French pronunciation: [fwa]; Occitan: Fois [ˈfujs, ˈfujʃ]; Catalan: Foix [ˈfoʃ]) is a commune, the former capital of the County of Foix. It is the capital of the department of Ariège as it is the seat of the Préfecture of that department. Foix is located in the Occitanie region of southwestern France. It is the second least populous French departmental capital, the least populous being Privas. Foix lies south of Toulouse, close to the borders with Spain and Andorra.
As of 2019, the city had a population of 9,493. It is only the second biggest town in Ariège, the biggest being Pamiers, which is one of the two sub-prefectures, the other being St Girons. Foix is twinned with the English cathedral city of Ripon, with the Spanish towns of Sarroca de Lleida and Lerida and the Andorran capital Andorre-la-Vieille.
Beautiful Foix in the South of France
Foix and the Region
In the South of France, more precisely in the Occitanie region, is Foix, a rather small, historical town.
Very typical of the South, the downtown features lots of trees – People spend time outside, and they look for some shade as it gets quite hot in the summer months.
Narrow streets are winding up everywhere all the way to the castle. So, the access to the castle is directly from the old downtown and you can walk to it – You don’t have to drive. Plus, it adds a tremendous impact to the downtown life and general feeling.
The medieval castle dominates the old town and also overlooks the newer parts of town.
If you ever go there, I recommend you take the tour. It is very comprehensive and interesting, but for the moment, I will let you take a peek through these few pictures.
We are now leaving Foix, on the way to Montsegur, in the Cathar country.
Montsegur is a very quaint village – quiet, remote, with some very traditional food in the only restaurant that was open on that day.
Above Montsegur is the chateau de Montsegur, the cradle of Catharism in France in the 13th century.
600 people lived there, on that site. It was a rather safe refuge for this large community, persecuted by the church. Ultimately, more than 200 perished, burnt alive because of their own religious beliefs – a very tragic end… a tragic page of the history book.
Please leave a comment, make some suggestions on some subjects that you would like me to develop, and give me a thumb up to keep these videos coming.
Last but not least, remember to visit my website, travel, speak French, read my blog, SHOP… There is so much to do on VoilaByCoco.com.

Foix is a commune, the former capital of the County of Foix. Today it is the Préfecture of the Ariège department in southwestern France in the Occitanie region.The Romans built a fort on the rocky hill where the Château de Foix castle now overlooks the town.
The original Chateau de Foix was built before the tenth century (it was mentioned in Roger 1st will when he bequeathed this amazing chateaux to his youngest son Bernard). Seated on top of a small hill this astounding piece of architecture is essential viewing on your visit here: the chateaux has undergone recent renovation and is the jewel of the town.
Unlike many castles, the tourist authority have also provided abundant information for visitors and offer self-guided recorded visits in many languages. Whether you’re a count, a knight a fair maiden, or a parent looking for activities for the kids, you’ll be sure to step back in time at a visit to this fortress.
Since 1930, the castle has housed the Ariège departmental museum. Sections on prehistory, Gallo-Roman and mediaeval archaeology that tell the history of the Ariège from ancient times have been created with amazing taste. The museum has organised exhibits to concentrate on the history of the castle site so as to recreate the life of Foix at the time of the Counts.

Springtime in Foix France
Foix is located about 1hr and 20mins southeast of Toulouse by train. The Chateau de Foix dominates the town and was once a Cathar Castle. It is listed as a “monument historique” by the French Ministry of Culture. Beneath the Chateau is an interesting mix of architecture and alleyways dotted with patisseries, boulangeries, artisan shops, restaurants and cafes.

Tarbes France - A Beautiful Town in France Near Toulouse - Photos and Videos taken in May 2022
Pictures shown in this video were captured during our visit to Tarbes, France in 2022. Tarbes (French pronunciation: [taʁb]; Gascon: Tarba) is a commune in the Hautes-Pyrénées department in the Occitanie region of southwestern France. It is the capital of Bigorre and of the Hautes-Pyrénées. It has been a commune since 1790. It was known as Turba or Tarba in Roman times. Tarbes is part of the historical region of Gascony.
Formerly of strong industrial tradition, Tarbes today tries to diversify its activities, particularly in aeronautics and high tech around the different zones of activities which are increasing. The recent development of Tarbais beans [fr] and other regional specialties also shows a willingness to develop the agri-food industry thus justifying its nickname of market town. Its 42,888 inhabitants are called Tarbaises and the Tarbais.
Tarbes is a Pre-Pyrenees town within the rich agricultural plain of the river Adour, 155 kilometres (96 miles) southwest of Toulouse, 144 kilometres (89 miles) to the east of Bayonne, 70 kilometres (43 miles) southwest of Auch and 20 kilometres (12 miles) northeast of Lourdes. Tarbes is 1 hr 30 mins from the Atlantic Ocean, 2 hrs 50 mins from the Languedoc coast and 35 minutes from the nearest ski resorts. It is located at an average elevation of 304 metres (997 feet).
To the south of Tarbes, along with the pilgrimage town of Lourdes, is the border with Spain. The Pyrenees mountains, lying along the border between France and Spain, can be seen from the town.
