Comment

The Cité de Carcassonne is a medieval architectural ensemble located on the right bank of the Aude, south-east of the present-day city. This fortified medieval city, whose origins date back to the Gallo-Roman period, owes its renown to its double enclosure, nearly 3 km long and comprising fifty-two towers, which dominates the Aude valley. The Cité also includes a castle (the Château Comtal) and a basilica (the Basilique Saint-Nazaire). https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cité_de_Carcassonne

The Infopuce 2016 catalog, page 37, indicates a print run of 5,000 copies.
