Center of memory and martyr village of Oradour-sur-Glane. The village has been kept in ruins for memory, following the massacre of its inhabitants in 1944 during the Second World War. A poignant site that can be visited all year round and free of charge.

A truly impressive place, a must-see if you've ever been to this region. I also recommend taking the audio tour. Overnight stays are available at Camping & Gîtes En Campagne, 18 km west of Oradour-sur-Glane.
