Éguzon-Chantôme (French pronunciation: [eɡyzɔ̃ ʃɑ̃tom]; Limousin: Aguson e Chantòsma) is a commune in the Indre department in central France.
It is situated on the river Creuse. A nearby hydroelectric dam (the Éguzon Dam), opened in 1923, provides electricity and also creates a lake (Lac de Chambon) that is used for leisure and watersports. The commune is listed as a Village étape.[3]
Geography
[edit]The river Abloux forms all of the commune's western border and the Creuse, with the Chambon Lake, forms all of its eastern border.
