We will visit buildings, memorials, statues, and places that have a link back to World War 2 and I will share my love of the subject, bringing the history to life by telling you the personal stories about the people involved using many photographs from the archives.

The tour is fun, engaging, well-researched, and insightful, but never dry.

I look forward to journeying back in time with you!

We do not visit La Cité (The medieval castle)

We meet at the restaurant the Brasserie de 4 Temps.

    This is a wonderful opportunity to learn real stories of real people, mens and women’s stories that help us know about World War II and the people ofCarcasonne during the resistance. This is the brilliance of this tour because it gives us an opportunity to learn from the past , to understand what is happening now and how the choice to save one life can save the world.

    An interesting and informative talk enthusiastically delivered by Paul on an aspect of Carcassonne other than the mediaeval cite. The realities of living under the occupation was covered including individual local heroes, the resistance and escape of Jews and downed airmen across the Pyrenees. Can't recommend enough.

    Paul was very knowledgeable and explained things very clearly whilst encouraging questions if we didn’t think we’d understood something properly. The two hours flew by and we really enjoyed it. Would recommend.

    Very informative and knowledgeable especially regarding the French resistance within Carcassonne. Couple of nice drink stops too especially at Le Bristol where hopefully the tour guide will eventually get his free drink!

  • Considered and thoughtful look at how Carcassonne and it's citizens negotiated a path through the war years

    Paul gave insightful local anecdotes against a backdrop of the national and international stage... thought provoking and sombre at times...

    Paul was a great guide and was passionate about Carcassonne during WW2. The tour was informative and fun. Lots of really interesting facts but never dull! Personally I thought the group was too big on my day considering the narrow streets in the town. Sometimes hard to hear and find a safe place to stand. For a big group there needs to be more emphasis on safety and consideration of locals. However I cannot recommend this tour enough!

  • Beautiful and well preserved castle

    A very nice and well preserved castle or fortress. You can spend the whole day here and browse through various shops, museums and shops. There are numerous restaurants with reasonable prices.

    A really enjoyable tour. We did it with our 12 and 15 year old kids and they found it interesting too. It’s a great way to get another perspective on the town that isn’t about the castle. It was a good pace and the pictures helped bring it to life.
