Located in the Midi-Pyrenees region of the south of France is the town of Montauban. The town is close to the famous French city of Toulouse, a great place for visitors to head south to and just a short drive away on the E72.
This makes hiring a car from Montauban a must, allowing you to get out of the town and explore the wider area, which is packed full of fascinating places and interesting things to see. The town itself also has plenty to explore and discover for those willing to delve into it.
Visitors taking up car hire from Montauban will want to head straight for the Musee Ingres which is on the former site of a castle in the town, at the east end of the town bridge. It contains a number of Ingres paintings, hence its name, but also has a number of historical features, some of which date back to the 17th century and earlier. The museum is a unique insight into the way in which the town operated in the past and is a must-see for anyone visiting the town.
In the town there are several churches including an impressive cathedral that should also be visited.
