Description
Something a little different for me - hand painted digitally.
LOUBRESSAC is a classified "Un des plus beaux village de France et village de fleuris" - one of France's most beautiful villages and village of flowers. It is situated in the beautiful valley of the Dordogne, in the Department of the Upper Lot. Being a hill-top village it overlooks the chateaux of Montal, Castelnau and St. Laurent Les Tours. The views around the village and house have been painted and written about for centuries and are breath-taking during the day and absolutely magical in the evening when the chateaux are illuminated and the lights of the nearby town of St. Cere, twinkle in the night sky.
Loubressac is one of those rare villages that are still able to evoke another time and place, and should not be missed if you are in the region. It is a magical village to explore and enjoy, and although small the trip is highly recommended.
The village itself has a nice chateau (not open to the public) and a 12th century fortified church (modified in the 16th century) in the village centre, and many lovely medieval buildings made of the local white-honey coloured stone, with fine rooves in old tiles and decorative balconies, facing onto the narrow streets and the central square.
Another highlight of the village is the fantastic views in almost all directions, across the valleys of the Dordogne, the Cere and the Bave rivers, and to various distant chateaux. It is best to visit on a clear day if possible.
In addition to being a 'most beautiful village', Loubressac is also classified as a 'village fleuri' (village in bloom) for its colourful floral displays.
