PERIGORD VERT
The Dordogne is a country of many faces in its geographical features and climate. The temperate climate is evident throughout the Périgord in the gentle winters and moderate summer temperatures. The position of the valleys, the rolling hills, the profile and position of the forested hillsides, the clear felled land and the lakes all create a range of particular climatic zones. Summers are generally hot and dry.
The Périgord Vert and the Nontron region is thick with trees from pines to heather. Here the chestnut tree rules the land. This is a land of lakes and valleys - a land where the rich prairies converge with the gentle slopes.
The area was an ancient populated region, as evident in the innumerable prehistoric sites. During the Roman times the Périgord was the land of the Petrocorii Celts. In the 13th century it fell under the power of the duchy of Aquitaine with whom it came under English rule, following the marriage of Eleanor of Aquitaine and Henry II of England (1152). In 1398 the king of France removed the duchy of the Périgord from his kingdom and it passed successively to the House of Orleans, the House of Penthièvre and then to the House of Albret, before being incorporated into the Royal kingdom of Henry IV of France(1670). In 1790 the Périgord was detached from the rule of Bordeaux to form the largest part of the department of the Dordogne.
Second to Paris, the Dordogne has probably the richest heritage of historical monuments in France. The incredibly rich Perigourdine heritage create a wonderful region :
- innumerable prehistoric sites
- 1500 châteaux and manors
- troglodyte sites
- geological sites
- fortified walled towns
- roman churches (400 in total)
- the charm of the countryside.
Numerous walks and visits, sporting activities for all levels (horse riding, canoeing, mountain biking) allow you to discover a region in a cultural, educational and entertaining way.
LIMOGES
Limoges, the capital town of Limousin, is home to 200,000 people. A substantial number of these are students from the local University, which explains the town's great nightlife. This large city developed along the banks of the Vienne thanks to its industry, which has progressively disappeared in recent years. As a result the city has a reputation for being a political hotbed of revolutionary workers and non-establishment thinking.
Limoges still retains a number of craft workshops that produce various souvenirs. ‘The Porcelain Exhibit' takes place every July and August while the Festival des Francophonies - packed with lectures, concerts and drama productions takes place in September and October. The region has numerous lakes providing the opportunity for various water sports.
The Limoges-Bellegarde airport is 10 km from the city and has flights direct from the UK. The railway station, an architectural attraction itself, provides an efficient connecting service to the TGV at Poitiers for travel to and from Paris.
