Monpazier is a charming little town in the Dordogne, southwest France, that takes you straight back to the Middle Ages. It was founded in 1284 and looks almost exactly the same today as it did then. The market square with its old market hall, where you can buy fresh, local delicacies, is particularly special. The narrow streets and old stone houses make the town super cozy. When you stroll through Monpazier, you feel like you're in another time, and there are plenty of small shops and cafés that invite you to linger. A really special place! https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monpazier?wprov=sfti1 https://maps.app.goo.gl/CiQMURpJUSA7vrMEA?g_st=ic

Today owned by the Dordogne department, the castle recognized as a Major Site in Aquitaine and classified as a Historic Monument! It presents a set of buildings whose diversity and superposition of styles still testify to the past power of this family of valiant soldiers and powerful lords, firmly introduced into the immediate entourage of the Kings.

The streets run parallel to the long side and are crossed by four cross streets. The whole village consists of rectangular blocks where all houses were originally the same size. When walking through the village, this tight layout still gives a strange feeling. This strictness does not belong to a French village. I also had that feeling about the new part of Carcassonne and Villefranche de Conflent.
