Le Grand Théâtre des Cordeliers
The Grand Théâtre has become an unmissable stop on the Vieil Alby / Rochegude Park promenade, a highly coveted place to relax in the city center.
Places of shows, concerts but also places of congresses and seminars, the Grand Théâtre can be visited. It offers a panoramic view of the Albigensian rooftops. A panoramic terrace, partly occupied by a restaurant offers a breathtaking view of Albi and allows you to spend a convivial moment at any time of the day from breakfast to a drink in the evening.
On the large esplanade, where we stroll, children ride bikes or skateboards. Benches, green spaces, water fountains invite you to have a good time.
The Théâtre les Cordeliers is the new emblematic site of a city steeped in history but also resolutely turned towards the future. The iridescent color is reminiscent of brick, a typically Albigensian material. It is to the architect Dominique Perrault that we owe this new cultural district which forms the link between the university center and the historic center. The Cordelier project is for the architect “the inverted cathedral, the color on the outside, the brick on the inside”
