Focus on...
Toulouse and Catharism 2024
Heretics, crusade, castles, inquisition, pyres... So many terms and images are associated with the Cathars and the Crusade against the Albigensians (1209-1229). This series of historical events that swept through the South of France has left an often dramatic vision of the 13th century in Toulouse and Occitania. The Saint Raymond Museum and the Jacobins Convent are joining forces in 2024 to offer a new double exhibition on both sites. From 5 April 2024 to 5 January 2025, the Jacobins Convent will present the "Cathar" phenomenon on the scale of the medieval Midi between the 11th and 14th centuries, dealing with religious, social, political and military aspects. At the Musée Saint-Raymond, the city's archaeological museum, the exhibition will focus on the county and its capital, Toulouse, its population and its battles during the Albigensian crusade.
