Lovely little villages on the Canal du Midi. Sleepy little brick houses and boats meandering along the canal. Charming bridges and archways. Great paths for cycling. Tempting to just stay and not bother going any further. Excellent Auberges on the river.
Minerve is a medieval village. There are no cars in the little town which is situated over limestone gorges. It was a centre of Cathars and a site where many of them were thrown on the stake or burned alive. It seems that religions were always warring and fanatics of any kind are dangerous and to be feared.
