Toulouse

Toulouse Panorama

Toulouse is the capital or Prefecture of the Occitanie Région and the fourth largest city in France. Like nearby Albi, the extensive use of red brick for its principal buildings is the explanation for its nickname The Pink City or La Ville en Rose

Cité de l'Espace Toulouse

Today it is the centre of the French Aerospace industry and the headquarters of Airbus are also located here along with the SPOT satellite programme and CNES, the National Centre for Space Studies plus several other organisations connected with Space research. It also has the fourth largest University in France (founded in 1229) with more than 100,000 students.
