The pond of Puychaumartin equipped for swimming is located 2 kilometers from the village of Château-Chervix. Its area is about 1.8 hectares. It enjoys a pleasant and privileged environment. Every year during the summer period, swimming is supervised by a lifeguard.

The Château de la Brégère, the centerpiece of a former agricultural estate, is a fortified house (15th century), located 7 km from Saint-Yrieix. Its appearance and its defensive elements: keep, watchtowers, gun loops, perfectly illustrate the history of a modest Limousin seigniorial dynasty. During the summer, the castle hosts exhibitions of artists.

The village and its old noble houses dominated by the imposing remains of the castle constitute a picturesque whole which makes it one of the most beautiful villages in France. Nestled in a loop of the Auvézère and protected by a rocky outcrop, Ségur is, as the toponymy indicates, a 'safe place'. From the 9th century, the construction of a castle gave it its vocation as a stronghold. The construction of two bridges, in the 13th century, allows the extension of the village on the other bank upstream and downstream of the large loop. Until 1750, Ségur was the seat of a court of appeals which received appeals from 361 seigneurial courts. Its architectural richness owes a lot to the many robins (people of dress) attracted to this courtyard.

The Cécile Sabourdy Museum & Gardens, located in the old 17th century presbytery in the village of Vicq-sur-Breuilh, present a permanent exhibition and 2 to 3 temporary exhibitions per year. The museum is dedicated to all self-taught and atypical artists: canvases, drawings, sculptures, textiles relating to the Naive, Brut, Singular or Hors-les-Normes arts…, while offering a perspective on modern and contemporary creation. Around the collection of naive paintings Cécile Sabourdy (1893-1970), evoking a rural and timeless world of Limousin, the museum's Naïve collection brings together discreet painters such as Robert Masduraud, Existence, Bichard as well as renowned artists such as André Bauchant and Maurice Loirand.
