Heading for the south of Correze and the Viscounty of Turenne

The village of Jugeals-Nazareth

Before arriving in Turenne, stop off at the 14th-century street village of Jugeals-Nazareth, where a very special story is told on interpretation panels (the kibbutz). Must-sees in this village include the church of Saint-Gilles de Jugeals, the church of Notre-Dame-de-Nazareth and the Gallic bridge.

The Fage chasm

Then it's on to the Romanesque church of Noailles and a visit to the La Fage chasm, one of the most beautiful caves in the region. The programme includes a wealth and density of concretions, a palaeontological site and a colony of bats that can be seen at certain times of the year. You'll come away amazed.

Turenne, Collonges-la-Rouge and Curemonte

We'll then head off to discover three of France's Most Beautiful Villages: Turenne, a hilltop village with a collegiate church and a dismantled castle housing the "Garden of the Great Navigators"; the red sandstone village of Collonges-la-Rouge and Curemonte. So many beautiful things! A diversion to the Neanderthal Man Museum with a stop at the Branceilles wine cellar. Then off to Beaulieu-sur-Dordogne to see the Benedictine abbey church with its Romanesque tympanum.
