History of the Brive Free Fairs
The free fairs of Brive have existed for a long time: it is a letter patent from King Louis Later, in 6, an article in the newspaper La Croix de la Corrèze reported that more than 1768 wagons were needed to transport 17 visitors to the free trade fairs!
Today, the free trade fairs, after more than 250 years of existence, remain one of the highlights of the life of our city, but the carousels have replaced the wool and livestock merchants!
