The Aude: Land of Wonders

Algoma — Discover France > Aude

The Aude is a land where history seems to rise straight from the landscape. From Carcassonne’s iconic silhouette and Narbonne’s Roman and medieval heritage to the vertiginous royal fortresses of the Corbières and the lagoons, beaches and seaside villages of the coast, the Aude offers a journey through a land of striking beauty.

Here, centuries of history and the pleasures of the South of France come together — sometimes spectacularly, sometimes quietly, but always with a story to tell.
