Limousin

Limousin

Limousin is a sparsely populated historical region in south-central France. Mainly agricultural and covering part of the rugged Massif Central mountains, it's known for beef farming and its distinctive Limousin cattle. Its principal city, Limoges, home to Gothic cathedral Saint-Étienne, has been producing fine porcelain since the 19th century. Thousands of pieces are on display at the Adrien Dubouché ceramics museum.
