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.

Cathedrale St-Etienne

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

Musee National Adrien Dubouche

In its fully renovated setting, the Adrien Dubouché National Museum holds the largest collection of Limoges porcelain in the world. It also contains representative works from the key stages in the history of ceramics. The museum route follows a journey through time that starts in Antiquity and crosses continents and civilisations, leading visitors towards the most recent designs. Everyone can marvel at the virtuosity of the masterpieces on display in an area dedicated to manufacturing techniques. The Adrien Dubouché National Museum and its prestigious collections thus contribute to the international reputation of ceramic arts and the promotion of the exceptional know-how that has made Limoges so famous.

During our time in France, we visited the Musee National Adrien Duboche which is the national porcelain museum several times. The porcelain art on display is truly world-class and worth the visit or several visits. Additionally, their educational exhibits are outstanding showing the porcelain process and the history of porcelain from ancient middle-eastern and Japanese displays to completely modern exhibits. Quite honestly, I knew literally nothing about porcelain but was absolutely amazed and entranced by the art and the exhibits. I cannot encourage you enough to visit the museum it's well worth the trip. As I said, we went several times and enjoyed every visit and always found something additional to catch the eye. DO GO AND ENJOY, YOU'LL BE GLAD YOU DID.

Gare de Limoges

Lac de Vassiviere

Reviewed By roo1000 - Hampshire, United Kingdom

This is a great area for adults and children as there is plenty to keep both occupied, lots of nice restaurants and bars dotted around the lake as well as water sports, beaches and a dining boat. The island on the middle of the lake is easily accessible you can either walk, get the petit train or the free water taxi across to the centre. It still feels like a hidden gem as even in the height of summer it never feels overcrowded, a must see in this beautiful part of France.
