Postcard Toulouse

Toulouse, nicknamed the “pink city”, is a city in southwestern France located on the banks of the Garonne River. It is known for its unique architecture, characterized by the use of terracotta bricks that give the city a pinkish hue. This architecture is particularly visible in the historic center of the city, where there are many medieval and Renaissance buildings.

Toulouse has a long history dating back to Roman times, and it has been an important center of commerce and industry for centuries. In the Middle Ages, the city was a major cultural and religious center, with the construction of the Basilica of Saint-Sernin, which is a remarkable example of Romanesque architecture.

Over the centuries, Toulouse became a prosperous city thanks to its strategic location on the Garonne River, which allowed for the development of trade and industry. The city is also an important center for aerospace and aviation, with the presence of major companies such as Airbus and the Centre national d’études spatiales (CNES).
