The Museum of Automata in Limoux is a unique and magical place that showcases an array of meticulously crafted masterpieces. Visitors can explore the history of automatons through an engaging video presentation and have the opportunity to interact with the enigmatic French lady who is behind many of the creations. The museum offers a memorable experience for those interested in the extraordinary, with exhibits illuminated in an atmospheric and sometimes eerie manner accompanied by a musical soundtrack.
Stunning impressive. We’ve been to many museums and this stands out. Very unique. It is a family business and they are open to answering your questions. Very friendly. Go here!
Monica B — Google review
What an extraordinary museum - fascinating and very well done. A really imaginative place, definitely a must see. For us, an outstanding experience that’ll be remembered a long time, and made all the better by the charming lady proprietor who explained how the automated figures were made, and showed us around the workshop. Don’t miss this place!
An absolutely fascinating, unique experience and one of the best things to do in Limoux. Very well presented, very eerie and the proprietor speaks great English and is happy to show the workshop & explain the automata. Would thoroughly recommend.
A unique experience all hand made is a family busines pass on from generation yo generation they quide us and treat us as friends must try
What a fascinating find. We were welcomed by owner and animals - this place is a step into the bizzare, but in a good way. The intricacy and skill of everything on display here deserves acknowledgement.
A small but really nicely done (clothing and decor) collection of automations. A nice little spot in an unexpected place in the city.
Say hi to the (not automated) dog and spend a minute/hour/year/lifetime (i haven't tested how long the dog could keep going) throwing his toy.
A most unusual museum. For all who seek the out of the ordinary. A good video presentation of the history of automatons. We had the opportunity of chatting with an enigmatic French lady who is the brains behind most of the creations.
Unique and memorable. For anyone with even a slight interest in the eerie, it is a wonderful experience. The guy in charge was nice enough to give us a little background and insight into the art of automata. Great fun!

Although the price is not high, I'm still disappointed because the presentations of the machines are succinct, there is no demonstration video of the different machines and as a former photoengraver I had to give explanations to my wife on certain machines that I knew...

Blanquette de Limoux Emile Satge
3.0
(2)
Winery
Blanquette de Limoux Emile Satge is a renowned local wine with a rich history dating back to 1531. The region's soil, which is ideal for grape vines and olive trees due to its poor water retention, contributes to the wine's exceptional quality. Notably, Thomas Jefferson was so impressed by the wine that he imported 600 bottles into America. This white wine was also the first in France to receive an AOC designation.
(Translated by Google) Clearly ashamed after driving by and not having time to park in 5 minutes, I had seen people in front of the cellar door including the person. I think who the manager was and 5 minutes after parking and reading that I had to ring 19. A voice told me that they were supposedly closed. I ask them why they tell me. We are eating. I give them a joke. I just saw you. There are 5 minutes in front of the door... Moreover the person answers me without opening the door but is really incredibly rude. Especially since after having traveled 200 M to return to my car, I see a neighbor arriving by car and the person coming out of the cellar to say hello... It's clearly shameful. It's really nonsense. Even just opening the door to say excuse us, we're eating would have been kinder. I will not return there and I advise against setting foot there
(Original)
Clairement honteux après être passé en voiture et le temps ne me garer en 5 minutes, j'avais vu des gens devant la porte de la cave dont la personne. Je pense qui était la gérante et 5 minutes après m'être garé et avoir lu qu'il fallait sonner au 19. Une voix me répond que soit disant ils sont fermés. Je leur demande pourquoi ils me disent. On est en train de manger. Je leur fais signe une blague. Je viens de vous voir. Il y a 5 minutes devant la porte... De plus la personne me répond sans ouvrir la porte mais vraiment d'une impolitesse incroyable. Surtout que après avoir fait 200 M pour revenir à ma voiture, je vois un voisin qui arrive en voiture et la personne qui sort de la cave pour dire bonjour... C'est clairement honteux. C'est vraiment n'importe quoi. Ne serait-ce que ouvrir la porte pour dire excusez-nous on mange aurait été plus aimable. Je n'y reviendrai pas et je déconseille d'y mettre les pieds

Food & Drink
Wineries & Vineyards
Maison GUINOT Blanquette Crémant Vins Limoux is a hidden gem offering exceptional sparkling wines that rival Prosecco and Champagne at a great value. Located in Limoux, just a short drive from Carcassone, this winery offers an insightful tour for a nominal fee. The estate prides itself on producing its renowned sparkling wines using traditional methods, with an emphasis on manual processes over machinery.
Amazing tour - we were the only people who had booked the tour so they showed us around by ourselves. Really informative tour provided to us in perfect English. I would recommend the tour to anyone who is interested in the process of making sparkling wine. We tasted lots of the wines after the tour and I purchased 2 bottles for a very reasonable price.
Heather T — Google review
Top tour! Interesting and informative. The lady who took us round (sorry, I didn't get your name) was knowledgeable and made sure I was OK and understanding her talking in French.
Wine tasting at the end was great.
Go visit. You won't be disappointed.
Stopped in to purchase a bottle of Blanquette de Limoux and the Owner was just about to start a tour of the cave. The process of assembling the wine for the Crèment and fermenting both the Crémant and the Blanquette (a single grape), is complicated and time consuming and M. Guinot explains the steps involved to arrive at the final product; it was very interesting.
At the end we tasted several and had an opportunity to purchase product. Just over an hour and well worth it!
Super detailed tour. We observed every part of the cellar and production line. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and gave several details about the wine making process. The tasting was very delicious. We are very happy with the tour.
The most wonderful tour, an amazing experience. Michel is brilliant at creating magic in his caves, it was a pleasure to get to learn about the complete process in creating their delicious sparking wines. Thank you also to his amazing team leading us through many tastings. Everyone’s English was superb, wish I could fill my suitcase back to Australia with Cremant! À bientôt et merci
We had a fabulous tour of Maison Guinot with Michel. We were just 3 people who turned up for the 10.30 visit but Michel was more than happy to spend the next 90 minutes explaining the history of blanquette wine-making and showing us the processes, followed by a wine tasting. It was a fun morning and amazing value for money.
€5 per person gets you a fantastic tour and tasting experience at this small wine producer in Limoux.
They are one of the few producers left that make the famous sparking wine using the traditional methods, choosing to do everything by hand rather than use machinery.
The tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly, and even though we were on a French tour she took time to explain each key point to us in English.
The tour ended with a tasting session of some of their wines, and they were truly amazing. The sparkling wine made in this area actually predates champagne, and it’s said that Dom Perignon stole the production methods when he toured the area and took them back to the champagne region.
A must visit tour of Maison Guinot in LImoux only about 20 mins from Carcassone and a bargain at 5euros. Limoux is famous for its sparkling wine (Blanquette and Cremant) made using the same method as champagne and records have been found that shows the people in Limoux provided the recipe to the champagne region. We have visited many wine houses and this tour and tasting was fantastic, both in French and English. The use of videos, sound and lights made the tour fascinating. The Blanquette and Cremant are both lovely and very reasonably priced.

Inside this imposing church, there is an extensive collection of instruments with informative boards on the walls. The staff at the entrance offered guides in English for our visit. Only the upright piano in a plexiglass casing can be played by visitors. The large auditorium in the chapel is also used for recitals.
Amazing collection of pianos. Lovely building. Great selection of different concerts throughout the summer. Well worth a visit.
Incredible collection of pianist dating back two centuries. An historical archive with many descriptions etc. A mystery see if you're in the area.
Great little museum in a beautiful church, well worth a visit
A super place. Part museum and part concert hall.
Lovely
(Translated by Google) Very nice museum with a fabulous collection of pianos in an old church. Too bad we can't play on some characteristic models (eg the fortepiano) or listen to recordings. Possibility of playing on a modern transparent piano. Ask the reception to watch a short video which explains the genesis of the museum. It's instructive.

Musée très sympathique avec une collection fabuleuse de pianos dans une ancienne église. Dommage que l'on ne puisse pas jouer sur quelques modèles caractéristiques (ex le piano forte) ou alors écouter des enregistrements. Possibilité de jouer sur un piano transparent moderne. Demandez bien à l'accueil de visionner une courte vidéo qui vous explique la genèse du musée. C'est instructif.

Pont Neuf in Limoux is the oldest and most central bridge in the city, despite its name suggesting otherwise. Originally built from wood, it was reconstructed with stone in the 14th century to connect both parts of the town. The bridge offers pedestrians a stunning view of the Aude river and the church, making it a popular spot for visitors day and night. Additionally, there are around 300 free parking spaces available on the street below.

Carnaval de Limoux

Festival
Carnaval de Limoux is a unique and traditional carnival that lasts for three months, making it the longest carnival in the world. The ceremonial ritual dates back to ancient traditions and features masked Goudils parading around Place de la Republique every Saturday and Sunday from January to March. The carnival offers an opportunity to witness the disguised Fecos gangs as they roam from one cafe to another.
A great day out.
Kim G — Google review
Well, that was interesting. A small, local carnival. Couple of food stalls. Not many groups involved, but those that were, really made an effort. The Hungarian troupe dressed in scary Yeti costumes were something to behold. Limoux is a nice enough town to spend a few hours in.
Very entertaining. Went to the afternoon session which was about half an hour, so not too long.

Tony K — Google review
Just sitting here after having the most amazing meal. We ordered a Cesar Salad, pizza, hamburger and Cassolet. All served with a smile and everything was superb. If you're in Limoux, do yourself a favour and try it out.
Having not been in Limoux since before Covid, we were delighted to find that Le Concept was offering really nice food, a good welcome, and a charming owner. This Summer, we have eaten here and not been disappointed. We have brought guests with us quite a few times, too. We have varied in our choices from the Plat du Jour, to Cassoulet and Fricassee de Limoux early in the year, to Pizzas when it got warmer. Well worth a visit, indoors or on the terrace on the Place.
We use regularly because of excellent quality food and efficient friendly service.
Great atmosphere. French cuisine at its best.
Kitchen is visible and obviously clean and well run.
Menu de jour today was beef bourginon or lamb cutlets. Both superb. Starter was Salmon en feuillete, delicious.
Choice of desserts. Fondant chocolate a winner.
We recommend the Le Concept menu, really really good foie gras salad. Nice people, great location.
We had 2 meals there. Beautiful food and great service. Best meals we have had in France. X
Excellent omelettes, salads, and frites! Nice, friendly servers. An excellent choice for sitting out on the place.
Enjoyable dinner with large group of friends, food was good as well as the service, would return

Great location on the corner of the main square within easy reach of great choice of restaurants. Friendly and welcoming staff. Room was first class and spacious. Well worth a visit
Excellent dining for 6 on a very rain soaked night. The goat cheese salad entree was outstanding and friends commented on excellent cassolet and salmon dishes. I had a delicious entrecote well done to perfection. The nougat glace was nicely presented and a good close to my meal. Others had a variety of desserts but the warm chocolate fondant was outstanding. Great and cheerful service, excellent presentation and overall prices were similar to other restaurants on the square. Modest wine selection but adequate. Probably the best food on the Place de la Republique. Will return
I had delicious fillet of Loup de mer in a very tasty mustard a l'ancienne sauce with the best tasting potato slices I have had this year. My wife indulged in a very large and tasty entrecote steak. I followed up with a superb pancake stuffed with raspberry sorbet while miley had the cheese selection Both followed with coffee. Good value but not cheap at €55. Cheery and excellent service from the regular waiter.
We booked a reservation, but a few hours later we realized that we couldn't reach the hotel because we were biking through France and the weather had turned against us. They still charged us the full rate.
Basic but charming. Jovial patron, wonky stairs. Clean & comfortable. Everything a French hotel should be.
Great location and a lovely hotel
Good service and great pizza!

Nestled in a charming vaulted-stone setting, L'Odalisque offers an intimate dining experience that is nothing short of exceptional. This bistronomic gem serves thoughtfully crafted seasonal dishes, showcasing high-quality ingredients at great value. The highlight of our visit was the indulgent lobster menu, featuring a delightful trio of courses including a lobster roll on brioche and a stunning whole lobster paired with squid-ink pasta.
I recommend booking a table in advance. It’s a very good place with affordable prices, big portions and wide range of wine. The staff is welcoming and friendly. There are some paintings in the wall you can buy. The atmosphere is very relaxing and provoking some south vibes.
Kirill M — Google review
Absolutely enjoyable dinner. Tucked in a beautiful vaulted-stone setting, the restaurant serves thoughtful, seasonal plates with precision and warmth. Each course was beautifully composed, and the plating is colorful, balanced, and a pleasure for both eyes and palate.
Service is attentive without hovering, pacing is spot-on, and the value for the quality is excellent.
Important: the restaurant operates by reservation only — but it’s absolutely worth planning ahead.
Our favorite place for an in-town treat.
We finally indulged ourselves in the top-end homard (lobster) menu at L’Odalisque and it was quite the blowout. Three courses of homard: lobster roll on brioche, lobster montgolfière (hot air balloon crust over a bowl of lobster bisque and lobster chunks) and the main event of a whole lobster with squid-ink pasta. We were stuffed but somehow made room for their yummy desserts. We’re also learning this summer about the wines from Faugères, yum.
Reservations are a must. Lots of locals dine here.
Two items of note. (1) The exposed stone walls make for a very loud room. (2) The portions are generous, so pace yourself.
Just fab... And no more pricey really than any of the other restaurants in Limoux for better experience. Book online via their website. Our price included a very nice bottle of red and service.
Actually, you could have guessed that you also need a reservation for lunch. So we came back a day later and got a nice table for two.
The many awards at the entrance promise a lot of enjoyment. And the menu keeps the promise. Either a la carte or one of the numerous menus. the latter is optionally available with wine accompaniment.
Speaking of wines. The prices are very fair for the high level and they are all available by glass.
We ordered the L Odalisque menu with wines and were very full with the three courses. The flavors help too. Highly Recommended!
Friends took us to L'Odalisque, telling us that it's the best restaurant in Limoux. As the yellow plaques outside the door of the restaurant indicate, it consistently wins awards. It's a reservations-only restaurant; you can't simply walk in and ask for a table.
The table d'hôte meal four of us chose was amazing and reasonably priced for such an outstanding meal. For entrées, the choices were filet de merlu (a filet of hake) with vegetables (asparagus, peas, carrots, broccoli, potatoes) in a sauce that the menu described as "crustacean" sauce — made from the reduction of shells of seafood like shrimp and crab; or chicken pieces cooked in a sauce that Karin, who chose it, called Moroccan, with coriander and cumin and ground peanuts.
For salads, there was burrata with freshly made pesto and salad greens, a tapas platter, or a seafood salad. Among ourselves, we chose all three. With these items came a glass of wine. Some of us chose a local rosé and others a local white wine.
The dessert menu was pretty large. I chose a pavé with vanilla flavoring and a scoop of chocolate ice cream on the side, and my dining companions had a lemon pudding-tart (I forget the exact description). The latter was spectacular.
All this followed by cups of coffee that were part of the fixed-menu price….
The meal we had, at a surprisingly reasonable price, lived up to the expectations we had after our hosts told us what a good restaurant L'Odalisque is and after we saw its display of awards.
Wonderful meal well worth the trip. Nothing bad to say about this spot near the river and town Center. The pictures speak for it all, 5 stars!
Outstanding on every level! Chef’s menu with Wine pairing was brilliant value & thoughtful and delicious food with vibrant and interesting wines to match.
Service was warm and friendly but not at all pretentious - highly recommended.
