When to go to Albi?
The Tarn loops below a cathedral built like a fortress: Sainte-Cécile is plain red brick outside, painted vaults and colour inside. The Berbie Palace next door holds the Toulouse-Lautrec museum, devoted to the painter born in these streets, its terraced gardens dropping to the river. From the Pont Vieux the whole episcopal city, UNESCO-listed, reads as one continuous wall of brick.
