This visit offers you to observe from several points of view the heritage of Périgueux and to question the evolution of its knowledge and its preservation today.
Before starting development work on the Place de la Clautre, an archaeological diagnosis is necessary. The National Institute for Preventive Archaeological Research (INRAP) will exceptionally present you how current archaeological surveys are carried out on the site and what they can teach us. After this discovery of the basement of the Place de la Clautre, place of ancient burials, became historic market place of the city in the Middle Ages, the City of Art and History service invites you to climb on the roofs of the cathedral to take height to take a fresh look at the Périgueux heritage while questioning the way in which the urban development continues.
