Origin and history
The Priory of Collonges-la-Rouge is a historical monument located in the village of Collonges-la-Rouge, in Corrèze (New Aquitaine). Built mainly in the 16th and 19th centuries, it embodies the religious and civil architecture of these periods. Its facades, including a balcony on consoles, as well as its roofs, were included in the inventory of Historic Monuments by order of 4 January 1951, highlighting their heritage value.
The building is located in Place Marcel-Lapetitié, in the heart of the village of Collonges-la-Rouge, a village renowned for its red sandstone constructions. Although the sources do not specify its current use, its inscription suggests historical and cultural importance for the municipality.
