Add higher scores, bigger risks and a powerful large meeple to your Carcassonne countryside.
Official Carcassonne Expansion 1 Carcassonne base game required.
Build richer roads and cities with inns, cathedrals and large meeples that make every tile placement more strategic.
Product Description
Take your Carcassonne game to the next level with Expansion 1: Inns & Cathedrals. This expansion adds new land tiles, cozy inns, grand cathedrals, large meeples and components for a 6th player.
Inns can make completed roads worth more, while cathedrals can turn completed cities into huge scoring opportunities. But there's a cheeky little catch: if those roads or cities are unfinished at the end, they score nothing. Lovely reward, spicy risk. Very Carcassonne.

Good to Know
- This is not a standalone game.
- You need the Carcassonne base game to play.
- Inns and cathedrals increase your scoring potential, but unfinished roads with inns and unfinished cities with cathedrals score no points at game end.
- Large meeples are placed like normal meeples, but count as 2 meeples when scoring control of a feature.
- The expansion can be mixed fully or partly into your Carcassonne game and can also be combined with other Carcassonne expansions. The rulebook confirms that a copy of Carcassonne is required and that the expansion may be used fully, partially, or with other expansions.
