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

Reviewed By Paualijesion2014 - Wakefield, United Kingdom

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.

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.
