Hello and welcome to another history hike! Today is a big one, Carcassonne. It’s one of France's best known tourist attractions and rightly so. As a kid Dries visited Carcassonne and he has been fascinated with history, castles and the Middle Ages ever since. Jente was dragged along without too much struggle, a video was shot and history was made. Enjoy and never forget: castle love forever!
Castle coordinates: 43°12'25.2"N 2°21'47.9"E
If you liked the video, then give us a thumbs up and share the castle love with your friends. Comment if you have any remarks or suggestions. If you are interested in tagging along and seeing more of our content then be sure to subscribe!

Absolutely terrific. Both the city and the castle itself are beautiful although my first thought on seeing the castle was that those conical roofs looked a bit "off".
@TheHistoryHikers
@TheHistoryHikers 2 года назад
The roofs are indeed an "invention" of the 19th century by the architect Viollet le Duc. It's a romantic representation of what a castle should look like. If you haven't seen our video from Pierrefonds, be sure to check that out too. Also restored by le Duc!

Yes, the entire site is quite phenomenal! Walking through the narrow streets really makes you feel like you've travelled back in time. Glad we share the love for Carcassonne 😁

@Topicushistory 2 года назад
When I first saw the castle I thought wow it looked like a fairy tale castle, then you explained conical roofs were placed there in the 19th century because that's what they imagined them to look like at that time. Makes perfect sense.
@TheHistoryHikers
@TheHistoryHikers 2 года назад
Yeah the romantic era. You gotta love it (they finally were interested in the middle ages) but they also did some weird stuff (tearing down abbeys as garden deco, restoring castles to 'how they should have looked like instead'). But Carcassonne is one of our absolute favorite destinations ever. We went two days in a row on our holiday there 😂

It is a very romanticised version of what it would look like. Also there weren't as many cars.
