Brive-la-Gaillarde is a city where gastronomy has an important place. In the markets of the city, you can find magnificent local fruit and vegetables, and also and above all truffles, foie gras and cepe mushrooms. Every year, Brive-la-Gaillarde organises its Book Fair, the most important cultural event of the year. On that occasion, the French Language Prize is awarded. In the evening, Brive-la-Gaillarde illuminates its finest monuments and invites you to take a walk along an illuminated path.
