Brioude is in the Haute-Loire department in the southern part of the Auvergne region.

The town has one principal attraction - its basilica.

The Basilica Saint-Julien is the largest roman style church in the Auvergne region, and dates from the 11th-14th centuries. The colourful frescoes and the patterned paved floor are the main things to look out for.

The town of Brioude itself is calm and pleasant, with some unspoiled streets and houses to enjoy around the Place St Jean and the basilica, if perhaps missing the high drama or tourist appeal of some other towns.

The tourist-office in the town can provide you with a map for a guided tour of the town that incorporates the most important manorial houses.

The region along the river Allier is also attractive, and offers various watersporting activities.

Nearby attractions include the medieval village of Lamothe and the classified most beautiful village at Lavaudieu.
