Topic: Libourne


  
  Itinerary - France's Bordeaux Wine Trail Travel
Libourne, the wine capital of the Northern Gironde, is in the heart of world famous vineyards producing top quality wines not far from Bordeaux.
Libourne was built in 1270 as a "bastide", a fortified town built on a square pattern.
The streets are still in the grid pattern of medieval Libourne, fitting in well with the classical architecture of 18th and 19th century buildings, in the context of a modern town.

Libourne was created by Henry III of England in the 13th century but was actually named after Roger De Leybourne, an English nobleman from Kent, who was put in charge of the town some years later as a reward for helping Edward I in battle.
It was the perfect position for a fortified town, on the banks of the Dordogne river, and was an important trading centre for the Pomerol, St-Emilion and Entre de Mers wine regions.
Some of the houses in Libourne have façades remarkable for their resemblance to houses in the Art Nouveau style, but which were actually built in the 18th century.

Libourne’s modest Stade Moueix, with its capacity of 8,000, may be a far cry from Saviola’s old haunts such as River Plate’s Stadio Monumental in Buenos Aires or Barcelona’s Nou Camp, but the Argentine brought a touch of class worthy of a bigger stage to a difficult afternoon for Didier Deschamps’ men.
But Libourne have a knack of producing the unexpected when it comes to the Coupe de France.
The first of his three predatory strikes arrived after 25 minutes, and though Libourne equalised and caused Monaco some problems, two more goals late on from the 23-year-old completed a 4-2 win.
