Toulouse is a beautiful, medieval, and Renaissance town, known around the world as "La Ville Rose"!

During the social program, we will organise two visits and spectacles in two of the most famous medieval cloistered complexes of Toulouse on the Way of Saint James, which is inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List. We will have gala dinner in a true Renaissance cave.

Toulouse is also a modern city, home to a major university founded in 1229, with today 120,000 students and 7,000 researchers, as well as the Airbus aircraft manufacturing company and the CNES (Centre National d’Etudes Spatiales), which is responsible for space programmes.

 

Here is an overlook of the social program we propose (possibly submitted to aleas):
> Sunday: Welcome ceremony & cocktail reception, featuring local food and wine ( at the University of Toulouse)
> Monday: Visit to the basilica of St Sernin (XIIth century) & musical journey along the Way of St James
> Tuesday: Visit of the "Jacobins" (XIIIth century) accompanied by an example of Bel Canto
> Wednesday: Farewell ceremony & last brunch (at the University of Toulouse)
