Circuit cyclo sportif Time trial - Tour de France 1998

Settled at the feet of the Monédières mountains and surrounded by forests, this charming village has an astonishing natural setting and offers rest in the heart of the Corrèze. Many points of view, walks in the surroundings, old houses and hearty local dishes have to be discovered.

Au coeur d'une campagne luxuriante, vous pourrez découvrir ce petit village dont l'"originalité religieuse" peut surprendre. A quelques pas de l'église se trouve un temple protestant !

At feet of Monédières, a vast cirque cut in the granitic rock marks the border between plateau and mountain. The cirque of Freysselines is a real sanctuary of the moor: heathers, ferns, brooms, myrtilliers and raspberry bushes form a plant heart of a rare variety.

The orientation table provides a magnificent panorama of the Limousin Mountains and the Millevaches plateau. The Monéfières massif is a rolling landscape. The Auvergne can be seen if the weather is clear: the Dôme, Dore and Cantal mountains.

The President Jacques Chirac Museum houses the 5,000 diplomatic gifts given to the President between 1995 and 2007. Jacques Chirac in turn became a donor by choosing to give them to the Departmental Council of Corrèze. In addition to this initial function, there is now a desire to present to visitors the character of the President of the Republic, and more particularly the history of the role and powers of the eight heads of state of the Fifth Republic. This transformation will take place over several seasons, but will begin in 2023 with the discovery of the office of the Presidents of the Republic in the Élysée Palace, the Salon Doré. The diplomatic gifts given to Jacques Chirac are and will always be presented in the heart of the visitable reserve. Temporary or seasonal exhibitions are also available.

The Corrèze river has given its name to this charming small town and to the département. Dating back to the 9C, the old fortified town has retained its slate roofs and parts of its ramparts last breached in the 16C.

For a stopover in the Monédières mountains, Josette welcomes you to her friendly inn as if you were her guests. Taste its regional cuisine: the menu includes a vegetable soup, a starter, a main course, cheeses, dessert and coffee.
