Carcassonne, France day 1 walking tour

Description

http://tourvideos.com/ The walled town of Carcassonne in the southwest corner of France is a beautifully-preserved medieval village with a castle in the center and narrow, winding cobblestone lanes. The whole place is like a castle because it surrounded by 2 concentric fortified walls and within the walls we find the small village, a half-mile across with original buildings preserved from the 15th century. It's an amazing town to visit, one of the most magical medieval villages you've ever seen. You'll see how easy it is to walk around inside the village and get a nice feeling for the history; and there's enough there that you could easily spend a day or two days just wandering in looking at the shops and then taking a walk in the little back lanes. In this episode we will take you inside the castle then walk around the wall with a local guide, and bring you on walks through the streets of the Old Town. We will be showing you this old fortified town on top of the hill; then later we show you more, including the modern town down below, in part 2.

Day 1 of trial for teens involved in 2020 beheading of French teacher

Trial opens for six teenagers for their role in the 2020 beheading of French teacher Samuel Paty, the first of two trials in a case that horrified France. The suspects, who were between the ages of 13 and 15 at the time of the murder, are accused of having been on the lookout for Paty, identifying him to the killer in exchange for money, or for making false accusations. Paty, a 47-year-old history and geography teacher, was stabbed and then beheaded near his secondary school in the Paris suburb of Conflans-Sainte-Honorine. His attacker was shot dead at the scene by police. IMAGES
