Limoges, porcelain and enamels
The capital of Limousin, Limoges built its fame on porcelain and enamels. The Adrien-Dubouché Museum shows one of the richest porcelain collections in the world, while the medieval city gathers around Saint-Étienne Cathedral and the Cour du Temple. The central Halles, in the heart of the Château district, form an ideal foodie date on a Saturday morning.
Red villages of the south
In the Corrèze, Collonges-la-Rouge lines up its houses of red sandstone in an almost surreal setting: it is the village that inspired the label of most beautiful villages of France. Nearby, Turenne, perched on a peak, watches over the valley. Wandering these lanes and climbing the Tour César is a perfect excuse for a weekend together that keeps the taste of travel.
Memory and the art of living
In Oradour-sur-Glane, the martyred village, silence demands reflection. More peaceful, Saint-Léonard-de-Noblat, on the Santiago pilgrimage route, charms with its collegiate church and old lanes. On Lyad, members from Limousin share their favourite walks; it is up to you to find someone to take your time with, away from the noise.
