Pont de la Gabie

Highlight • Bridge

The Gabie Bridge spans the Vienne River between Verneuil-sur-Vienne and Saint-Priest-sous-Aixe. Built in the 19th century from granite, it replaced an ancient Gallo-Roman bridge located a few hundred meters downstream. The site, classified as a natural area of ecological interest, offers beautiful access to the river for a peaceful break.

12th-century church in Saint-Yrieix-sous-Aixe

Highlight • Religious Site

Located in the heart of the village, the church of Saint-Yrieix-sous-Aixe dates from the 12th century and retains a Romanesque façade that is rare in Limousin. It was remodeled in the 15th century and restored in the 20th, with superb stained-glass windows by Francis Chigot. Listed as a Historic Monument, it houses remarkable furnishings, including an 18th-century altar and an octagonal baptistery decorated with polylobes.

Cognac Castle

Highlight • Castle

The Château de Cognac La Forêt has been the site of a castle since the 11th century, it is believed, after foundations were discovered under the present building in 1970. The present castle consists of two distinct styles, a round tower and a square tower, which are not thought to have been built at the same time.
