THE PERIGORD

The Périgord is an area rich in history, as evidenced by the large number of castles and, indeed, was one of the main battlegrounds of the Hundred Years War between the French and English in the 14th and 15th centuries. However, this part of its history is comparatively modern, when considering the restored Roman ruins and numerous pre-historic sites, which have resulted in the area often being known as ‘the cradle of mankind'.

The geography and natural resources of Périgord also make it a beautiful, unspoiled region, which is also rich in wild life and the Parc Naturel Régional Périgord-Limousin plays an important part in the conservation of this.
