Named "UNESCO creative city" in 2017, Limoges is particularly known for its porcelain, a true pillar of the Limoges industry since the 18th century. To learn all the secrets, we invite you to follow an initiatory journey between the Adrien Dubouché National Museum, the exhibitions of the Conservatory of Arts and Techniques, the Bernardaud Foundation, not forgetting the porcelain factories and the factory outlets.
Beyond porcelain, Limoges also has an important architectural heritage, as evidenced by the impressive Saint-Etienne cathedral, the half-timbered buildings in the Boucherie district, or the medieval bridges of Saint-Etienne and Saint-Martial.
If you like museums, take a trip to the Museum of Fine Arts, more commonly known as the "Musée de l'Evêché", where you can admire four collections of works: one devoted to Limousin enamel, another to the history of Limoges, the Beaux-Arts collection made up of paintings, sculptures and drawings and finally that of Egyptian antiquities.
Sports friends, Mathieu, the manager of THEO, has not forgotten you! For a 100% Limoges experience, he advises you to attend a CSP Limoges Basket match. With many more French and international championship titles to its credit, the city's basketball club is indeed one of the most renowned in Europe. Take advantage of the unique atmosphere that reigns at the Palais des Sports de Beaublanc to watch a match from the bleachers !
