A pleasant commune located in the north of the Creuse département and bordering the Indre département, it is also situated in the "first foothills" of the Massif Central, offering a verdant, undulating, wooded landscape. The paths are still lined with "bouchures", which provide pleasant protection from the heat and inclement weather. However, all that remains are a few walnut trees, which seem to have given their name to the commune (Nouziers is derived from the Latin "nucarium" meaning walnut). Nouziers is a dynamic commune, with a lively community life and events that attract many visitors every year, such as the 24-hour Solex race on Pentecost and the Christmas market held on the last Sunday before Christmas.
