About Place Carnot

Place Carnot is a typical French public square situated near the center of Bastide Saint Louis. This central town square serves as a fundamental meeting place for several locals and tourists and a bustling market close to the lower town in the city of Carcassonne. You will get a chance to go to an open-air fruit, vegetable, and flower market in this public square every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. The visitors can look for any of the cafe’s outdoor tables to sit in this town square, enjoy a morning café creme or afternoon Pastis and watch the world pass by in front of their eyes.


It is a happy and cheerful place, where you can see children playing with the pigeons near the Fountain of Neptune or skating on the occasional ice rink that has been placed during the Christmas season. This place also hosts plenty of free musical events and an occasional wine-tasting activity. If you have ever thought about what life would be like in the South of France Town, you will certainly get a chance to witness it here.
