Le Mirail is a district in Toulouse, France. It was an urban expansion project proposed by the then-mayor Louis Bazerque in 1958, to combat the increasing population, and resulting housing shortage.
In 1962, the Greek-French architect Georges Candilis was given the responsibility of designing the new quarter in Toulouse, along with Shadrach Woods and Alexis Josic.
Finished in 1972, the architectural experiment ended up being around two thirds of its planned size.
One of the largest urban renewal projects in the city of Toulouse, that of the Reynerie district, launched in 2019, provides for the demolition of four tripod tower blocks as part of the urban renewal project.

The Château du Mirail is a castle in Toulouse.
The Château du Mirail was commissioned by Guillaume de Mondran and built in 1680. The 52-hectare surrounding park was landscaped between 1700 and 1720. In 1740, the castle was sold to Jesuit novitiates. In 1763, the Jesuit cult was banned in France. Monsieur Verse and Henri de Melier successively owned the castle. Monsieur de Saint Quentin became the new owner in 1777 and renovated the park, creating the small pond, the main stairs and a long canal. In 1829, the Sabatier family, new owners, built the dovecote. In 1898, the Lapersonne family bought the Château du Mirail.
