The Cité de Carcassonne is a fortified French town in the Aude department (southwest of France). The fortification consists of a double ring of ramparts and 53 towers.

The medieval fortifications were renovated by the architect Viollet-le-Duc in 1853.
The restoration was strongly criticized during Viollet-le-Duc's lifetime. Fresh from work in the north of France, he made the error of using slates and restoring the roofs as pointed cones, where local practice was traditionally of tile roofing and low slopes, in a snow-free environment. Yet, overall, Viollet-le-Duc's achievement at Carcassonne is agreed to be a work of genius, though not of the strictest authenticity.

...great! Until now I thought Carcassonne is a board game. It seems to be a real location. Embarrassing for me...

da fehlen nur noch ein paar Ritter und Burgfräulein - und schon könnte bei der Kulisse ein Mittelalterfilm losgehen. LG Alexander

Many thanks for your comment.

@ Jörg: from one point of view, also the restructuring of Viollet-le-Duc of the city of Carcassonne is a board game.
@ Walter: I saw your beautiful pano.

I happened to see this Carcassonne view by chance, but the rating is not by chance.
