Toulouse

Toulouse is a city in southwestern France, and capital of Haute-Garonne in the Midi-Pyrenees region. It stands just north of the Pyrenees on the River Garonne, half way between the Atlantic and the Mediterranean. Toulouse is the fourth largest city in France, after Paris, Marseille and Lyon. It's known for its rugby, its aerospace industry and for violets, which are used to make bonbons and Colas here.

The city was a Roman settlement, "Tolosa", and the smaller inner streets still follow the ancient layout. In the Middle Ages, Toulouse ruled an independent county, but it joined the Kingdom of France in 1271. In the fourteenth century, it was devastated by pogroms and the Black Death, famine, and war. Then, in the fifteenth century, it became wealthy from its monopoly on "pastel," a blue pigment extracted from woad plants, only to slump again when the monopoly was broken by indigo imports from India. In 1750, after its recovery and the city was rebuilt in pink terracotta brick, giving rise to its nickname La ville rose. The university flourished: founded in 1229, it's one of the oldest in the world, and now has over 100,000 students. Fermat pondered his theorems here in between his legal work.

Since the late 20th century, Toulouse has become a centre of aviation and spaceflight. More than 35,000 of the inner city's 400,000 citizens work in the civil aviation or space industries, and Airbus / EADS is the largest employer in the region.

Toulouse is the mid-point of the "Canal des Deux Mers" linking the Atlantic with the Mediterranean. The eastern part and the Canal du Midi, is the most interesting, as it climbs out from Toulouse over the hills then down through Carcassonne and Beziers to reach the Med at Sete. The western part parallels the River Garonne down through Agen to Bordeaux and the Gironde estuary. You'll need to hire a long-boat and set aside several weeks. Check ahead in case any canal sections are closed for repair.

Building 20 place of President Thomas Wilson, Toulouse - The landmarked building at 20 place du Président Thomas Wilson

Toulouse is a big city, but the historical centre is quite small, and mostly pedestrianised. You can walk to most attractions.

The bus, tram and metro lines are operated by Tisseo (website in French, English or Spanish). The trams start downtown at Palais de Justice, cross the river west to the interchange at Arènes and then run north before dividing: T2 to the airport, T1 to Beauzelle and the Airbus factory. Metro line A runs Southwest to NE, from the University through Arènes and the train station. Metro line B runs north-south, passing the main train station and Palais de Justice. Two other lines are actually suburban trains: Line C west to Colomiers and Auch, and line D south to Muret. Buses run along all the main streets but don't come into the pedestrianised core of the city, except the free city-centre shuttle (Monday to Sat) - no bus stops for this one, just wave at the driver.

A single ticket paid on the bus costs €2. A ticket from a machine or kiosk for any Tisseo transport is €2.91, a book of 10 is €13.40 and a one-day pass is €6. Validate your ticket on boarding, and it's good for transfers within one hour (within 90 mins to & from the airport.) Services become sparse late evening, but there's an extensive night network.

Taxi operators include Toulouse Taxi and Capitole Taxi. Pre-book to avoid long waits for a ride.

The bike rental scheme is run by Town Hall. First you need to register with ID and credit card at velo.toulouse.fr. A one-day ticket is 1.20€ and a 7 day pass is 5€, longer hires are available. You have unlimited journeys, for no extra charge for the first 30 mins and then the meter starts ticking.

Avoid going downtown with a car as parking space is seriously limited. Try using a suburban metro / tram station as a park-and-ride.

In the centre

The old centre of Toulouse is east of the River Garonne: it's compact and most places of interest can easily be visited on foot. It's bounded to the east & north by Bvd Lazare Carnot / Bvd de Strasbourg, and to the south by the cathedral, Rue Metz and Pont Neuf. The quays will become a good strolling spot but in early 2023 are being refurbished.

• Basilique Saint-Sernin - GPS: 43.6084, 1.442 north of centre, 100 m off Bvd de Strasbourg - Church free, crypts €2.50 Basilica of Saint-Sernin, Toulouse A red-brick church from the 11-12th Century, it may well be the largest Romanesque construction in the world - perhaps because it was an important stopover on the pilgrimage to Santiago. Huge as it is, it's the only remaining part of the former Abbey of Saint-Sernin. Notable features are the great bell-tower and the gates and the "ambulatory" passage, and the thunderous organ. In the 19th C the church was "restored" by the famous French architect Viollet-le-Duc: some of his re-imaginings of the Middle Ages are now being undone.

• Notre-Dame de La Daurade - GPS: 43.600833, 1.439722 on quays just north of Pont Neuf Opening Hours: Closed for restoration Notre-Dame de la Daurade - This church was founded in the 5th century but demolished in the 18th; the present building dates from the 19th C.

What to do in Toulouse

ST vs LOU - 21 - Rugby union match in Toulouse.

• Take a walk through the city, out over the Pont Neuf, along the river quays, or along the Canal du Midi.

• Canal du Midi - GPS: - Canal du Midi This is the eastern and more interesting section of the "Canal des Deux Mers", and it's a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It starts from the River Garonne in Toulouse, so its first few miles are walkable from the centre. But the best sections are further out, as it climbs the hillside then descends through Carcassonne and Beziers towards Étang de Thau on the Med. So you probably want a bike or canal barge to explore it.

• Party at Street Pierre Place: very popular among Toulouse's students
• Rent a bike: see "Get around".
• Watch a Rugby match. Stade Toulousain ("Les rouges et noirs") play Rugby Union in the French Top 14. They're seldom out of the top places and so qualify for European tournaments - they've won the European Rugby Champions Cup a record four times. Their home ground is Stade Ernest Wallon, but big matches are often played at the Stadium Municipal. If you prefer league, you might do better in England, as Toulouse Olympique play there in the Championship—though home matches are held in Toulouse at Stade Ernest-Argelès. Their second-string team Toulouse Olympique Broncos remain in the French Elite One Championship, playing at Stade de Minimes.
• Watch soccer: Toulouse FC are based at the Stadium Municipal and play in French Ligue 1.

Alternative Arts Scene

Toulouse is one of the most alternative French cities. It started in 1939 with an influx of Spanish republicans who'd lost the Civil War and fled through the Pyrenees, and continued in the 1960s with an influx from Algeria. Their tradition continues with the city's students, squatters, and artistic movements.

• Mix'Art Myrys is one of the oldest and most active squat of artists within the city.

• La Sainte Dynamo - 6 Rue Amélie Metro Jean Jaurès. Opening Hours: Wed-Sun 6 pm - 4 am . Bar & club located in a former sex club and a great place to see live bands and other performances - ça bouge!
• Les Motivées is an association that is very active on the political and social scene in Toulouse, and that organises or takes part in many free events, strikes, concerts, etc. throughout the year. They founded a political party a few years ago that is pretty active locally and holds a few positions with the City Hall Council. Check also the Tactikollectif their fellow co-working association on events like festivals, etc. that has its origin in the Northern quarters of Toulouse, which are the ones with social housing and lower quality of life.

• La Grainerie - Rue Street Jean 5 kilometers east of town on brownfield site just beyond A61 . Hosts various collectives of artists every year, has a special interest in circus.
• L'Usine - 6 Impasse Marcel Paul, off Bvd Marcel Paul, Tournefeuille | 12 kilometers west of Toulouse - Another residence for artists and collectives.

• COUAC: Collectif d'Urgence Acteurs Culturels defends the local associative and alternative cultural world, whereas the Toulouse Réseau Unitaire Citoyen aims at stirring local, social and political debates.

How to work legally in Toulouse

Anglophone travellers might find employment in the aviation industry; however even here French is commonly used. Also, with the current heightened security concerns, extensive screening is required for new employees, so these jobs are not suited for short-term work.

An easy day-trip is to Albi, childhood home of Toulouse-Lautrec. His ancestral home now houses a gallery of his work.

It's a simple day-trip to Carcassonne, but you really ought to stay overnight in its fantastical fortress, which directly inspired Disney Castle.

Following the river downstream or its parallel canal leads you via Montauban, Moissac and Agen to Bordeaux. Branching north at Montauban leads to the picturesque town of Puy l'Eveque on the River Lot.

There's a very scenic train route from Toulouse through the Pyrenees to Barcelona. From Toulouse main station take the local train via Vernet d'Ariège to Foix (75 mins, every couple of hours.) Several trains continue for another 75 mins to L'Hospitalet-pres-L'Andorra (the closest train station to Andorra) and Latour-de-Carol / Entveig on the Spanish border (3 hours altogether). Latour is an oddity: it's in France sandwiched between two tracts of Spain: the Spanish exclave of Llivia is just north. And it's a station with three different railway gauges: European (SNCF) standard, Spanish (Renfe) standard, and the metre-gauge "Little Yellow Train". The Spanish trains run south to Barcelona Sants 5 times a day, 3 hours. (They're classed as suburban trains so they're not on mainline timetables. Search on Renfe Cercanias for Barcelona, and use the Spanish name "La Tour de Querol".) The Little Yellow Train is a tourist train that climbs over the mountains to Villefranche-de-Conflent (3 hours, with connections onward to Perpignan). It runs twice every day throughout the year.
