Introducing Limoges

The city of Limoges is renowned for its production of enamelware and fine porcel­ain, and if you’re looking to pick up some French crockery, then this is certainly the place to do it; but these days Limoges is better known as a buzzy university town, home to around 17, 000 students and plenty of bars, clubs and drinking holes. Nevertheless, if you’re a fine-china fan, there are several museums dedicated to the city’s most famous export, and you can even visit a working porcelain factory – just remember to leave the pet bull at home.
