You can begin the tour around unique sights of the city with a visit to the Basilica of St Sernin. Since its foundation to the present day it continues to be the world's largest Romanesque church; the building is striking with its outstanding architectural style. The basilica was founded in the 11th century; a huge amount of priceless religious artifacts is kept within its walls. An old building has retained many elements of the wilderness, which makes it look even more fascinating.
An interesting and unique attraction is the Le Chateau d'eau, the so-called old water tower. It was built in 1822 and has long been used for storing water. Today the beautiful tower is converted into a gallery. There are often interesting exhibitions and themed cultural events dedicated to photographic art in it.
The must see attraction is Capitolium. That’s the name of the beautiful palace built of awesome pink brick. For many years it was used for administrative purposes and has witnessed major events in the history of the city. The last large-scale reconstruction of the palace took place in the early 20th century, but architects have managed to keep intact some elements of the 16th century.
