There is a strong farming culture here where the Correzian show their identity with agriculture centres, livestock fairs, livestock judging contests, and farming organisations, which are all part of the agricultural economy.

In Clergoux there is an example of Renaissance architecture with the chateau de Sedieres. The capital of the department is Brive-la-Gaillarde, with 50,000 inhabitants, located at the crossroads between the Correze, the Perigord and Quercy.
