Reise durch Canal du Midi

The Canal du Midi, which is almost 350 years old and around 240 kilometers long, is a technical masterpiece of engineering, which brought it onto the Unesco World Heritage List in 1996.
The canal connects the charming port town of Sète on the Mediterranean with Toulouse, the "pink city", crossing the picturesque hilly landscape of the southern French regions of Languedoc-Roussillon and Midi-Pyrénées and leading through sleepy villages and historically important cities with impressive buildings from many centuries.

Since the transport of goods on the artificial waterway was stopped, the Canal du Midi has become increasingly popular with leisure boaters who cruise along the water in peace and quiet in their motorboats or rented houseboats. Cyclists and long-distance hikers have also discovered the canal for themselves and use the shady towpaths on which horses once pulled the heavy transport barges.

Around 180 images show the gently undulating landscape characterized by vineyards and fields, highlight the most outstanding technical structures on the canal and take a look into the charming villages and towns and behind the thick walls of fortresses, monasteries and cathedrals that have largely survived the ravages of time.
