What an absolutely wonderful little town! And the walk in the castle and on the walls was really special because you could really walk around the whole town, see it from every angle. Informative boards are placed everywhere, giving you the right amount of history and details of the structures. The entry was very easy, there's a dedicated queue for visitors with already purchased tickets. If you are visiting on a sunny day, don't forget your hat and sunscream, plus wear comfy shoes :)

La visita al castello di Carcassonne ed alle sue mura è stata uno dei momenti salienti della nostra vacanza in Provenza. Grazie all'acquisto online l'ingresso è stato rapido e senza problemi. La visita al castello è stata un continuo saliscendi fra i vari ambienti interni ed esterni con belle vedute sulla città ed i dintorni.

Ho apprezzato la facilità di ottenere i biglietti e la comunicazione: sono stata infatti informata di un cambiamento di orario (dovuto alle alte temperature) il che mi ha permesso di anticipare la visita

I very much enjoyed my visit to Carcassonne. I strongly suggest people get the guided tours listening machines, it makes a huge difference. When I entered, I didn't know they were available, and stumbled upon the place to get them. I suggest it is promoted more prominently. For 5 Euro I found it made a huge difference to learn more about my visit.

Llegamos a la puerta norte, era in poco pronto y todos los locales estaban abriendo. La cola para entrar al Castillo fue rápida y comenzamos con las Murallas. Son espectaculares, el Castillo me defraudó, es bastante simple porque las zonas que están habilitados tienen poco interés. Por lo demás genial.

Enjoy self-guided access to one of France’s most impressive historic attractions, the Carcassonne Castle and its courtyards, ramparts, and the archaeological museum.

Walk along the fortified medieval walls and climb the Bishop’s Tower, spanning both city walls.

Marvel at 15th-century polychrome alabaster statues in the Salle Pierre Embry and take in panoramic views from the ramparts as you learn about Eugène Viollet-le-Duc’s restoration work that revived the city to it's medieval grandeur.

Smooth entree, no problems to use the tickets in the email. Don' t bother the meetingpoint suggestion: no need for that if you don't do a tour .
