Haute Vienne

The department of Haute-Vienne is an ideal place for families, with attractions that include the Parc du Reynou zoo and gardens. Though there are cages, different species of animals are kept together to live as they would in the wild, whenever it’s safe to do so. Some of Haute-Vienne’s most impressive attractions are the historic buildings found all over the area, with the Quartier de la Boucherie being a particularly idyllic spot with beamed houses and cobbled streets.
