  • CAHORS A MATTER (A STORY) OF CENTRALITY

    A few minutes after flying over the Pyrenees, the plane starts its descent to Toulouse airport, the nearest destination to Cahors, one of the small European cities participating in the INT-HERIT project. This project involves and gives name to a network of 9 cities, all committed to the improvement of heritage management at local level as a way of connecting it to their future. In Cahors, the traveller soon discovers the weight of heritage and how for both political representatives and citizens, it is perhaps one of the most important assets when it comes to recovering the centrality of the city for the future, as it was in the past.
