Limousin, on the western slopes of the Massif
Central, attracts visitors in search of unspoiled
countryside and has been named by poets "the land of a
thousand lakes". The many lakes and the rivers of this
area provide endless possibilities for canoeing,
sailing, windsurfing and other water sports. Fishermen
will also appreciate the abundant trout in the region's
streams and brooks.
Rushing rivers, undulating pastures, woodland and
hedgerows are dotted with historical fortresses and
imposing chateaux, in this most beautiful region of
France.
Limoges is the capital of the Limousin region.
Hundreds of ancient village churches dot the landscape
as well as more imposing abbey churches and fortresses.
Its moorlands have made the Limousin a region of
horse-breeders. Limousin is also well known for the
famous Limoges enamel and porcelain, and tapestries from
Aubusson. Search for French Property for
