The RESERVOIR, a place open to all

LE RESERVOIR is committed to welcoming all visitors and meeting your needs. The RESERVOIR team is working to improve the accessibility of the Canal du Midi Discovery Area, and offers adapted tours and workshops throughout the year. LE RESERVOIR has been awarded the Tourisme & Handicap label for motor and mental disabilities.

My adapted visit to the RESERVOIR

The Espace Découverte du Canal du Midi is fully accessible to people with reduced mobility. A lift provides access to the permanent exhibition area dedicated to the Canal du Midi and its water supply system in the Montagne Noire region, located on the first floor, as well as to the first floor, which houses the auditorium and temporary exhibitions.

The Romantic Park and the Galerie des Robinets are not accessible to people with reduced mobility, due to the presence of numerous staircases and gravelled slopes. A virtual tour of the Galerie des Robinets is available free of charge from the Espace Découverte reception desk.
