Main Boulevard – Public Art in Carcassonne

On the La Bastide Saint-Louis or the lower town of Carcassonne, we immediately noticed some artistic treasures.

Here are some sculptures scattered around the main boulevard, a testament of modern influence to the city. This Square is known as the Place Gambetta.

This is the statue of Helena by Raymond Sudre, just outside the Musee des Beaux Arts.

And this is located at the far end of the boulevard…the Musee des Beaux Arts.
