Reperes de Limognac
There are so many different landmarks you could find in the City of Limognac, including the massive 18th Century Maison de la Reine, located in the city centre. Along with Government House, Place de l'Etoile, Palais de Congres and its famous seafront walk. Limognac, definitely have their own identity, and their own "international" culture, and its own architecture and choices of landmarks. As you haven't noticed the bird-eye view of Limognac, there are so many different parks, including the famous park La Colline and Le Triangle, Parc d'Aire and Parc d'Eux.
In the city centre, you'll notice so many old buildings, along with modern highrises. In 1986, before the "skyscrapers development boom", le Miaire de Limognac (the mayor of Limognac) have decided to establish a new law. The law is that the skyscrapers will only build in that section of the city centre, and considering the skyscrapers, the legal height is 185 metres. The buildings are allowed to build outside that section of city centre, but only up to 30 metres (9 to 12 floors approx).
This famous old landmark in the City Centre, which it was built in 1785, but heavily renovated in 1994 to "save the building" from ruins due to old structure. This building, Maison de la Reine, (translation: Queen's House). It was originally the holiday residence for the French Queen, and its guests but after the French Revolution, it was changed to a landmark and is protected by National Hertiage of France. The building now is home to a shops (on the ground floor and first floor) and rest up is museum, while the top floor is the penthouse, worth at $16.4 million.
This, is a typical inner city terrace house, which it is common in every part of inner Limognac. You can own a terrace house for at least $400,000. Most common place for terrace houses is at Rue de l'Eau. There are so many different types, architecture and colours of terrace homes in Limognac for your own preference.
This is, yet, another landmark of Limognac, Place de l'Etoile. The Place is a hotel in Limognac, and it was built in 1899, but was ruined in the World War I after the Capture of Limognac by the British Army. It was re-built, with almost exact same designs and materials in 1924. This hotel was just re-painted and replaced the glasses and windows. It looks brand new and lovely, and it is located at the popular "intersection" of Limognac. It is located exactly opposite to Maison de la Reine (Queen's House).
