Curemonte

Curemonte is a commune in the Corrèze department in central France. It is a medieval village characterised by its three castles. In a fortified position on a ridge overlooking a valley on both its eastern and western flanks, the village has historically had a strategic importance in the area. Its inhabitants are called Curemontois.

The village of Curemonte is built on a ridge line that overlooks the valleys of the Sourdoire and the Maumont.

Places and monuments include:
  • Châteaux de Saint-Hilaire et des Plas;
  • Château de la Johannie.
  • Church of Saint-Barthélemy du Bourg;
  • Church of Saint-Hilaire de la Combe: 11th Century Romanesque church, one of the oldest in the department, which was probably built on Merovingian foundations;
  • The church of Saint-Genest: former parish church, now a Museum of Religious Art.
