Did you know the Capitole de Toulouse was founded in 1190! Even though nothing remains today of the original building, the current structure reflects the successes of the city and how it has transformed over the decades. One of the only original standing structures of the Capitole is known as the "Archive Tower" - originally built in the 16th century! Today, the Capitole hosts the City Hall as well as the National Theater of Toulouse, but will always remain the true heart of the city. ⁠ ⁠ #siteoftheweek #cieestudyabroad #toulouse #funfactfriday #capitoledetoulouse ⁠
