Q. "Historic Fortified City of Carcassonne" is located in which country?
Answer: France
Notes: The "Historic Fortified City of Carcassonne" is the UNESCO World Heritage Site of France. Since the pre-Roman period, a fortified settlement has existed on the hill where Carcassonne now stands. In its present form, it is an outstanding example of a medieval fortified town, with its massive defences encircling the castle and the surrounding buildings, its streets and its fine Gothic cathedral. Carcassonne is also of exceptional importance because of the lengthy restoration campaign undertaken by Viollet-le-Duc, one of the founders of the modern science of conservation.
