A site offering a journey through the technical innovations, daily life and personality of Pierre Paul Riquet.
Meet Pierre-Paul Riquet and his crazy project. It happens at the foot of the dike of the Saint-Ferréol basin. Here you'll find the Canal du Midi museum and gardens. Spanning more than 800 m², the tour offers a lively presentation of the origins and background to its construction, technical innovations, daily life and Riquet's singular personality. A treasure hunt is available for younger visitors. Don't miss the gallery of water taps. Temporary exhibitions punctuate the museum's seasons.
