Caraman, on the borders of Lauragais
Wednesday August 2 at 20:30 p.m.
How did the small town of "Carmaing", which appeared around the XNUMXth century in the heart of Lauragais, go through the ages to become the charming town we know?
Deeply marked by catharisme, then by the religious wars until the XNUMXth century, the old fort experienced its share of misfortunes and destruction, causing a number of changes and urban reorganizations.
By the light of the lanterns, the group will (re)discover the stories hidden in the old stones of Caraman.
