The Drawbridge

The Drawbridge and entrance to the Fortress of Carcassonne. Signs of settlement as early as 3600BC has been found, but the fortress was built in the 1130.  It is no a World Heritage Site.  The fortress was considered impregnable and never conquered.  We wandered around for a few hours then drove to Montpellier.
