Lagrasse is a village in the picturesque valley of Orbieu.

The places of interest are a partially well preserved battlement from the Middle Ages and market halls on the 14th century`s meadow.

The Benedictine abbey "Saint-Michel" is worth seeing too. It was established in the 8th century and possessed divers sectors among Toulouse, Carcassonne and Narbonne. Today it`s one of the major historical buildings in the south of France. A monumental bridge from the 12th century leads to this abbey crossing the river.

The special charm of the city is due to the old, still preserved resedential buildings. Narrow crooked alleys are lined with mediaeval houses.
