Exhibition on Occitan Catharism

Visit the exhibition "The Treasure of Occitan Catharism" at the Biblioteca Pública Arús, presented by curators Eduard Berga, a criminologist and researcher of Catharism, along with Josep Lluís Soler Foguet, who coordinates the Camins Càtars cultural project. This exhibition aims to share the rich history and philosophy of the Cathar movement, which thrived during the medieval period in Occitania and Catalonia. The region fostered a unique civilizational context defined by cooperation and cultural wealth, alongside a noble spirit. Despite attempts to erase this legacy through historical events like the Albigensian Crusade and the Inquisition, both Occitan and Catalan revival movements have worked to recover the essence of Catharism, revealing its true treasures for contemporary audiences.
