La collection "Grands Sites Midi-Pyrénées" a été mise en place en 2007 par l'ancienne région Midi-Pyrénées. Aujourd'hui, elle permet toujours d’identifier les sites touristiques qui présentent un intérêt incontournable et facilite ainsi la découverte de la région. Dans les années à venir la démarche des grands sites sera progressivement étendue à l'ensemble de la région Occitanie / Pyrénées-Méditerranée.
