Corrèze, French department in Nouvelle-Aquitaine, France
The Corrèze is an administrative area in Nouvelle-Aquitaine with 283 municipalities, stretching between mountains, plateaus and the Brive basin. The area is crossed by the Dordogne River and includes three districts with centers in Tulle, Brive-la-Gaillarde and Ussel.
The French National Assembly created this area on March 4, 1790, from parts of the former Lower Limousin region. The name comes from the Corrèze River, which flows through the historic territories of this region.
The five classified villages such as Collonges-la-Rouge or Turenne preserve the regional building style with sandstone houses and narrow lanes. Visitors can still see medieval fountains and facades with hand-carved decorations.
The administrative seat Tulle coordinates public services for all municipalities through offices in three district capitals. Most places can be reached by car or bus, with main roads connecting the principal towns.
In 2008, a digital education program started here, giving all secondary school students tablets. This project made the region one of the first in France with widespread digital equipment in education.
