Take a trip through history in Périgord Noir
Perched on a rocky outcrop above the Nauze Valley in the Périgord Noir, this medieval town with its seven bell towers – which has not been spared by invasions and wars – has miraculously preserved magnificent examples of its architectural heritage.
Words from the people of Belvésois
And one day in 1907, in the heart of the village, at the corner of the market hall, the road gave way beneath the wheel of a cart… Long forgotten and even erased from the collective memory, it was through a trivial accident that the cave dwellings of Belvès were rediscovered. Today, a major tourist attraction, these eight underground dwellings – still hidden beneath the market hall – are revealed to the public during guided tours organised all year round.
