Recognisable by its blue label, the Pays Cathare® brand brings together professionals from Aude who are passionate about their work in agriculture, tourism and crafts.
For almost 30 years the Conseil Départemental de l’Aude pursues a policy of local development based on the enhancement of its heritage. The principle of this policy, supported by Europe, is to promote the maintenance and development of economic activity in the rural zones, as a result of the tourist activity. This comprises a complete programme allied to the enhancement of the Cathar Country with a view to reinforcing the attraction exercised by the already famous chateaux, by developing a special theme to each project.
