Perfectly situated on the banks of the Correze River, the charming French town of Brive is not only the gateway to the famously beautiful Dordogne region, it is also a haven of picturesque French life overflowing with living history. In addition to the traditional covered markets, held throughout the week in the hauntingly beautiful mediaeval square, Brive also boasts an exciting yearly calendar or festivals, most notably the famous Brive Book fair, one of the most prestigious in all of France.
