Overview

Immerse yourself in 1390 in Albi, guided by Perette, wife of a 14th century craftsman during a theatrical visit led in period costume for an immersion in the Middle Ages.

Go through time, and relive this period of transformation of the city which saw the completion of the construction of the cathedral, symbol of the power of the bishops. Explore with her the liveliest neighborhoods of the city while exploring its tumultuous past, including Albi's troubled period marked by the plague epidemic and the stalemate of the conflict with the English. Finally, when it comes to recounting the daily life of her city, Perette does not have her tongue in her pocket.

Unusual visit of 1h30 for adults and children over 7 years old.
