Most visitors read Carcassonne’s military history through the Cité’s walls. This garden points to a different layer: the former bastion at the edge of Bastide Saint-Louis. Walk its paths and look at the setting before returning to the street grid around Place Carnot. The stop adds contrast without demanding a long detour.
