Carcassonne — Inns & Cathedrals Expansion

Add greater stakes and bolder tactics to your Carcassonne games with the Inns & Cathedrals expansion — build grand cathedrals, place cozy inns, and press your advantage with powerful large meeples. Mind Games — proudly Australia’s oldest and best games store, founded 1977.

What this expansion brings

  • Enhance road and city scoring by adding inns (placed on roads) and cathedrals (placed in cities) to increase point values for completed features.
  • Introduce large meeples (big followers) with double strength to contest area control and lock down valuable scoring opportunities.
  • Adds new tactical layers to tile placement and majority fights — more reasons to plan ahead, block opponents, or risk going for massive scores.

Contents

  • 24 Land Tiles to expand the map and create fresh placement possibilities
  • 6 Large Meeples (big followers) — twice the strength of a standard meeple
  • 8 Standard Pink Meeples plus 1 Abbot for extra player options

Key details

  • Playtime: 45+ minutes
  • Ages: 7+

Why you’ll want it

  • Amplifies scoring swings with high‑value inns and cathedrals for thrilling comebacks and risky plays.
  • Large meeples change how you contest cities and roads, creating heavier tactical decisions and dramatic endgame scoring.
