Cannabis laws in Limoges follow France’s national law. Cannabis enforcement and penalties are governed by jurisdiction law, not city-specific rules in most cases.
Under the law, recreational cannabis is illegal, but small personal possession typically results in a fine. Medical cannabis is available on a limited basis. Some hemp-derived products may be sold under separate rules, but that does not mean marijuana is legal, and legality can depend on product content and labeling.
