Haute-Vienne
Haute-Vienne ((:ot vjɛn)) is a French department named after the Vienne River. It is one of three departments that together constitute the French region of Limousin. The neighbouring departments are: Creuse, Corrèze, Dordogne, Charente, Vienne and Indre.
There are three arrondissements (administrative regions) in the department; the Arrondissement of Limoges, the capital of which is Limoges; the Arrondissement of Bellac, the capital of which is Bellac, some to the northwest of Limoges; and the Arrondissement of Rochechouart, with its capital, Rochechouart to the west of Limoges. The chief and largest city in the department is Limoges, the other towns in the department each having fewer than twenty thousand inhabitants.
==Geography==
Haute-Vienne is part of the Limousin region. It is bordered by six departments; Creuse lies to the east, Corrèze to the south, Dordogne to the southwest, Charente to the west, Vienne to the northwest and Indre to the north. The department has two main rivers which cross it from east to west; the River Vienne, on which the two main cities, Limoges and Saint-Junien, are situated, and the River Gartempe, a tributary of the River Creuse. To the southeast of the department lies the Massif Central, and the highest point in the department is Puy Lagarde, . The source of the Charente River is in the department, in the commune of Chéonnac, near Rochechouart.
At the west end of the department is the Rochechouart crater, an impact crater caused by a meteorite that crashed into the earth's surface over 200 million years ago; because of subsequent erosion, little sign of the crater is in evidence today apart from the geologic effects on the surrounding rock.
