Under the cobblestones of Limoux: eight centuries of history revealed at the foot of the Tour Lapasset
The archaeological excavations carried out by Joris Moron, from the Éveha design office, on the site of the Toulzane islet, in Limoux, have yielded exceptional discoveries.
Carried out ahead of a real estate project, this first excavation of the old center of the city brought to light nearly eight centuries of occupation, from the 12th to the 20th century.
The joint study of buildings and subsoil traces the evolution of a medieval suburb that became an integral part of the fortified city from the 13th century.
Among the most remarkable discoveries are the remains of the convent of the Ladies of Sainte-Marthe, two curtain walls of the medieval rampart and the Lapasset tower, the only flanking tower still preserved in Limoux.
By its architectural features, this ensemble is now a major reference for the knowledge of medieval urban enclosures of the Aude and the Midi of France.
