Organising car hire in Montauban allows you to visit the Midi-Pyrenees region of southern France with ease. Montauban, the second oldest bastide of southern France (after Mont-de-Marsan), dates from the year 1144, when the count of Toulouse, Alphonse Jourdain, gave it a liberal charter. The Pont Vieux connects the suburb of Villebourbon on the left bank of the Tarn with the main town itself. The 17th century square, the Place Nationale, is entered by gates at each corner, surrounded by the pink brick which creates the buildings and the bridge alike.

To the east end of the bridge is the site which was once the count of Toulouse's castle, sits the Musee Ingres. Housing plenty of art by Montauban's famous son Jean August Dominique Ingres, alongside another famous native, Antoine Bourdelle, the building is predominantly the remnant of the 17th century building which served as the residence of the bishops of Montauban. Hiring a car in Montauban helps you explore all of these sights in the city itself, but also enables you to travel further afield.
