Découvrir le Canal du Midi à vélo Louer un bateau sur le Canal du Midi Tout savoir sur le Canal du Midi
Inscrit sur la liste des sites du patrimoine mondial par l'UNESCO le 7 décembre 1996, cet ouvrage fantastique dont le principe remonte à l'antiquité est resté pendant des siècles à l'état de projet. Seule la ténacité d'un homme, Pierre Paul Riquet, viendra à bout de cette idée folle : créer puis alimenter un cours d'eau artificiel de 240 km de long, large de 10 à 20 mètres et profond de 2 mètres reliant la Garonne et donc l'Océan Atlantique à la Méditerranée avec les moyens techniques et topographiques du XVIIème siècle, sous le règne de Louis XIV.
Au cours de son périple, et plus particulièrement en Languedoc, le Canal du Midi a rencontré de nombreux obstacles nécessitant la construction de nombreux ouvrages parfois uniques à leur époque. C'est dans le but de faire mieux connaître tous ces ouvrages et les territoires traversés que j'ai créé ce site Internet sans autre objectif que celui de vous faire partager ma passion et vous donner envie de venir visiter notre région fantastique.
C'est un travail réalisé dans ma classe de CM2 en 1998 qui a été le point de départ de ce qui allait devenir une véritable passion pour ce canal Royal du Languedoc. Je vous présente ici le fruit de mon travail qui s'est étoffé au fil du temps, de mes recherches, mes voyages et mes prises de vue. Je mets toutes ces informations et ces documents à votre disposition gracieusement en vous demandant simplement de ne pas les utiliser sans mon autorisation et ainsi de respecter mes droits d'auteur.

  • Vital Interests. We may process your information where we believe it is necessary to protect your vital interests or the vital interests of a third party, such as situations involving potential threats to the safety of any person.

  • For identifying injured, ill, or deceased persons and communicating with next of kin
  • If we have reasonable grounds to believe an individual has been, is, or may be victim of financial abuse
  • If it is reasonable to expect collection and use with consent would compromise the availability or the accuracy of the information and the collection is reasonable for purposes related to investigating a breach of an agreement or a contravention of the laws of Canada or a province
  • If disclosure is required to comply with a subpoena, warrant, court order, or rules of the court relating to the production of records

When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymise such information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

In some regions (like the EEA, UK, Switzerland, and Canada), you have certain rights under applicable data protection laws.

You can make such a request by contacting us by using the contact details provided in the section 'HOW CAN YOU CONTACT US ABOUT THIS NOTICE?' below.

8. CONTROLS FOR DO-NOT-TRACK FEATURES

Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track ('DNT') feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. At this stage, no uniform technology standard for recognising and implementing DNT signals has been finalised. As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this Privacy Notice.

9. DO WE MAKE UPDATES TO THIS NOTICE?

In Short: Yes, we will update this notice as necessary to stay compliant with relevant laws.

We may update this Privacy Notice from time to time. The updated version will be indicated by an updated 'Revised' date at the top of this Privacy Notice.

We encourage you to review this Privacy Notice frequently to be informed of how we are protecting your information.
