The history of the Cathars, a Christian community considered heretical by the Church in the Middle Ages, is filled with mystery, persecution, and resilience. During the 12th and 13th centuries, the Cathars sought refuge in nearly impregnable fortresses in southern France, until their tragic end in Montsegur. This journey will take us through the settings where this story unfolded, among medieval castles, charming villages, and breathtaking landscapes. Join us on this trip through time, where history and nature intertwine in an unforgettable experience.
