Montauban
Montauban, a city of art and history on the banks of the Tarn river
A town that has produced many leading cultural figures, including Ingres, Bourdelle, Olympe de Gouges and Roland Giraud, Montauban invites you on an artistic journey.
This pink-brick city has been designated a Ville d’Art et d’Histoire thanks to its many architectural gems, notably Place Nationale (a square with double rows of arches), the 14th-century bridge, the Ingres Museum and many fine mansions… Note that it’s just a short cycle trip up from the Canal de Garonne to Montauban via the Canal de Montech.
