Itinerary

Stop 1

15 min

Built on the left bank since the 12th century, the Saint-Joseph Chapel is immediately recognized by its turquoise dome, which has become one of the visual landmarks of the banks of the Garonne. Formerly linked to Saint-Cyprien’s hospitable history, it now offers an ideal setting to understand the evolution of the city.
Quai De La Daurade

Why is Toulouse nicknamed "the Pink City"? This is where the answer lies.
Hotel-dieu Saint-jacques

Founded in the 12th century, the Inn Saint-Jacques welcomed travelers, the needy and pilgrims on the Way to Saint-Jacques. Its long brick facade and its location facing the Garonne make it a major historical landmark.

Today, the École des Beaux-Arts occupies a site marked by a strong industrial history. Before hosting the arts, the building housed the Toulouse Tobacco Factory, installed here at the beginning of the 19th century.
Place de la Trinite

Small square in the heart of old Toulouse, the Place de la Trinité mixes historical charm and neighborhood atmosphere. Built in the 19th century, it retains an elegant architecture and a central fountain that recalls its role as a point of life in the commercial district.
