Carcassonne In the footsteps of cathars - Treasure hunt
Operated by City Escape Collection
Overview
Course in autonomy. The only riddle route located entirely inside the medieval city of Carcassonne — an immersive investigation into the alleys of the thirteenth century, far from the tourist trails. An original story rooted in the true Cathar history of Carcassonne. Each stop reveals authentic elements: the fall of Montségur, the Inquisition, daily life in the city in the century of Saint Louis. You play Beatriz, sister of Esclarmonde the Perfect Cathar. The story is lived in the first person, through childhood memories — an experience more intimate than a classic guided tour. No app to download, no group, no fixed schedule. You start whenever you want, you go at your own pace, you take breaks whenever you want. Fully autonomous, no Guide.
