Red Sandstone Houses Crowd the Narrow Lanes of Collonges-la-Rouge
Collonges-la-Rouge is a village near the old borderlands of Limousin and Quercy, set within Nouvelle-Aquitaine in south-central France. Known for its deep red sandstone buildings and tightly clustered lanes, the village forms one of the most distinctive historic ensembles in the region. Its setting at the meeting point of two cultural areas gives it a mixed architectural and historical character — part Limousin rural stonecraft, part Quercy southern influence. - AsNotedIn
