Castelnaudary is a commune in the Aude department in the Occitanie region of southern France. It is located in the former province of the Lauragais and famous for cassoulet of which it claims to be the world capital, and of which it is a major producer.

As you wander through the streets of Castelnaudary, you will be transported back in time with its well-preserved medieval architecture. The town is home to the beautiful Saint-Michel Church, built in the 14th century, and the Château de Castelnaudary, a stunning castle that dates back to the 12th century.

But it's not just the history that makes Castelnaudary special. The town is renowned for its culinary delights, particularly its famous dish, cassoulet. This hearty stew, made with white beans, pork, and sausage, has been a local specialty for centuries and is a must-try when visiting Castelnaudary.
