Ingres Museum Montauban

Over the rest of the week we spent a few hours keeping up with happenings via internet, catching up with reading, visiting the local market to of Realmont to stock up with produce and checking out the large bastide of Montauban. Montauban is an old bastide with a renovated central precint. Museum complete with somewhat out of context, but authentic, torture rack! Ingres paintings were good too!

At this stage of our stay here we have been very impressed with Albi and Cordes, the countryside is somewhat interesting without being spectacular and we are looking forward to exploring further into the Aveyron region next week.
