Neighborhood

Not only does Collonges-la-Rouge proudly proclaim the status as one of ‘The Most Beautiful Villages in France’, it’s also the founder of the association. Despite inhabitants putting down roots as early as the 8th century, the village became a stronghold of the Counts of Turenne by the 14th century and one of the largest fiefdoms in France. Collonges’s hallmark is undoubtedly its blazing red buildings (hence the name) built with sandstone rich in iron oxide, unusual for other areas in France but characteristic of parts of the region.

Plan your visit

Planning ahead for a visit to the beautiful Old Town of Collonges-la-Rouge in France is essential for an unforgettable experience. Here are some tips and tricks to ensure you’re ready: 1) Research attractions, accommodation, and dining options in advance. 2) Look into booking a guided tour or special activity online before arrival. 3) Check on transportation options–consider how you will get around town while there. 4) Look up opening and closing times of attractions and restaurants so that nothing is missed or left out. 5) Pack accordingly with the right clothing, shoes, sunscreen - whatever the weather may be! 6) Allow extra time when traveling to account for any unexpected delays along the way 7). Make sure to communicate your plans with family/friends back at home so they know where you are headed & can keep in touch during your trip 8).

Fabulous hidden gem in the middle of the French countryside. The little downtown is worth stopping just to walk in the street and eat something.
