"🇫🇷
Avec ses déclinaisons de rose, orange, ocre, la brique cuite est la signature architecturale d'Albi, de sa cité épiscopale et de son centre ancien. La cathédrale Sainte-Cécile et le Palais de la Berbie sont à ce titre les plus grandes constructions de brique au monde.
Introduite par les Romains, et très caractéristique du Midi toulousain, la brique confère à cet ensemble urbain son élégante et chaleureuse harmonie, donnant à Albi un air d'Italie.
