'''Limousin''' is a former [[province of France]] and now a [[region of France]], around the city of [[Limoges]].

The [[limousine]] car is named after the region because the inhabitants wore a hood with a profile perceived to be similar to that of the car.

==Culture==
The [[Limousin language]], which used to be spoken in the region, was possibly a dialect of [[Occitan language|Occitan]].
