Treignac

Treignac is a village in Corrèze situated along the Vézère River, where stone houses and narrow streets blend with traditional architecture. The settlement spreads across terrain about 375 meters above sea level.

The village took shape around 800 and received three city charters between 1205 and 1438, marking its growing importance. These privileges shaped its development as a settlement governed by elected consuls.

The Church of Saint-Étienne sits at the heart of the village with its 12th-century Romanesque design. The old market hall remains a focal point where locals and visitors naturally gather.

The village is easy to navigate on foot, and the river area offers open spaces to explore. Visitors find accommodations throughout the area, making both day trips and longer stays comfortable.

The village sits on the Via Lemovicensis pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela, attracting walkers from many places. The Vézère also draws sports enthusiasts who participate in international competition events here.
