Centre de la Memoire d’Oradour

Reviewed By Ajb1207 - Champsac, France

Probably one of those places everybody should visit. A small town devastated by evil on the 10th June 1944. The information centre you pass through to get to the village is very informative.

We popped in here whilst walking around Limoges. It’s a beautiful building- very peaceful. The stained glass windows are stunning as is the building itself both inside and out - would highly recommend

Gare de Limoges

Reviewed By patrickl191 - Trie-sur-Baise, France

From the slightly phallic clock tower to the church like dome an extraordinary building well worth a visit. In addition you can take a train! Among the great architectural railway stations of Europe - Milan, St Pancras and Limoges.

This Medieval castle was fabulous. We had a guided tour (€15pp booked at the Teverne) and it was SO worth it. The guide Irina was really passionate while she took us through the castle for 1,5 hours and told us many fun facts and details about the different rooms and how people lived back then. Most people in our group were French, and yet she took the time to tell us everything in English. Great visit, would recommend!
