Half-timbered houses of old Thiers, Auvergne poster

Thiers poster, half-timbered houses of the old town

The half-timbered houses of old Thiers rise in tiers up a steep hillside in Auvergne. Narrow lanes wind between their facades, and the bell tower of the Saint-Genès church peeks above the rooftops. This Thiers poster captures the town’s sharp slope, with its houses packed tightly side by side. Shades of wood, ochre and roof tile give the image a warm, earthy feel. The title “THIERS” appears on the poster, understated, like this ancient town perched on its hill.

A Thiers poster for lovers of Auvergne

Its wood and ochre tones suit a living room, an entryway, an office or a dining room. It pairs well with oak furniture, exposed beams, stone or terracotta, and fits easily into a country home. You can combine it with other posters of Auvergne towns or villages. It makes a perfect gift for a native of Thiers living elsewhere, a lover of the Puy-de-Dôme or a cutlery enthusiast, since Thiers is known as the French capital of the knife.
