Saint-Angel is located to the west of Meymac in the Correze department of Limousin.

The village is small, and runs between a small fast-moving streal at the bottom of the hill up to a priory on top of the hill - passing lots of traditional houses along the way.

The Abbey, Saint-Michel-des-Anges, was once operated by the benedictine monks, and still dominates the village despite the monks having long left.

It is said that the first monastery on the spot dated from the 8th century, although no written evidence exists to confirm a building until the 11th century. The Roman style church we now see attached to the priory dates from the 12th century, having been damaged by fires during the Hundred Years War and the Wars of Religion, and abandoned by the monks after the French Revolution.

There is a small cemetery adjacent to the abbey.

Enjoy the views across Correze, then be sure to wander along the quiet streets, thinking of the turbulent history that has taken place in this peaceful village.

The village is close to the autoroute which leads from Brive towards the Dordogne, and would make a good place to break the journey if you are travelling towards the Dordogne. The neighbouring village of Meymac is also recommended.
