Montpazier Village with medivel square

Highlight • Other

9.68 km

The commune of Monpazier is, with its 53 hectares of surface area, the smallest in Dordogne. In return, its bastide is one of the most beautiful.
If you have already been to Mirepoix in Ariège, you will be surprised by the resemblance of these two splendid medieval cities. In both villages you find these magnificent arcades where restaurants and shops do business.

The square is also superb in terms of its dimensions, with a large period wooden market hall in its center. It's a real journey through time. It feels like it, it’s very exotic! Note that some houses seem to lean dangerously, as if the ground is not straight.

St Dominic's Church, Monpazier

Highlight • Religious Site

For the church and its parish, Monpazier decided to dedicate its patronage to Saint Dominic. Studying his life takes us back to the late 12th and early 13th centuries. The priest and founder of the order worked not only in Spain (he was born around 1167 as Domingo de Guzmán in Caleruega near Burgos), but also carried out his pastoral work in France and Italy. Saint Dominic's feast day in the calendar of saints is August 8th in the major Christian denominations, and there are many other local memorial days.
