Montauban France

Situated on the banks of the Tarn River, 53 km north of Toulouse, the mid-sized city of Montauban is the birthplace of painter Ingres. The highlight of a visit to the old town center, marked by the pink-brick houses characteristic of the area, is a stop in place Nationale. Surrounded by double vaulted arcades housing shops and cafes, it is the center of activity in the ancient center. The 14th-century Pont-Vieux, located off the place du Coq, affords a nice view of the river.
