Toulouse

Toulouse's pink brick ties together Place du Capitole, the Basilica of Saint-Sernin and the Garonne. These anchors make a clear introduction to the city on foot.

Why go

Compare the civic scale of Place du Capitole with the pilgrimage history of Saint-Sernin, then finish by the Garonne. The brick that gives Toulouse its 'Pink City' name appears across these different settings. Saint-Sernin also connects the city to the medieval routes toward Santiago de Compostela, adding depth to a simple architectural walk.

What to look for

  • The brick façades around Place du Capitole
  • The Romanesque Basilica of Saint-Sernin
  • The Garonne riverbanks

Useful to know

  • Link the Capitole and Saint-Sernin before extending the walk to the Garonne.
  • Check the basilica's visitor information if seeing its interior is essential.
