Cité de Carcassonne is a medieval citadel located in the city of Carcassonne, France. Renowned for its impressive double-walled fortifications, the citadel dates back to the Gallo-Roman period and was extensively restored in the 19th century by architect Eugène Viollet-le-Duc. It features a maze of narrow, cobblestone streets, and its architectural highlights include the Basilica of Saints Nazarius and Celsus, as well as the Château Comtal, a 12th-century castle within the citadel.
