Aubusson, Aubusson erected at the confluence of the Creuse and four of its tributaries. These rivers made a deep cut into the plateaus and produced powerful landforms that enclose the city.

Aubusson's rich heritage is a good demonstration of the power of the past.

Aubusson offers visitors surprises and interesting discoveries at every corner. Granite is omnipresent, from the windows, to the castle stones reused to build a bridge, to the houses. Buildings are adorned with round towers and turrets and wrought iron Renaissance doors, niches and balconies.

Aubusson shines worldwide. From the vegetation that graced the walls of seigniorial homes to protect them from the cold during the Middle Ages to the tapestries completed in 2000 to bring to life the spirit of olympism, the incredible know-how of the local fibre artists has transcended the centuries to make tapestry a form of contemporary artistic expression today.
