À propos du lieu

Centre historique

Place de la Liberté, 24200 Sarlat-la-Canéda

The history of Sarlat would begin in the ninth century with the foundation of a Benedictine abbey. However, its existence is not attested until the twelfth century in the Life of Saint Sacerdos.
But many archaeological sources suggest that the site was inhabited long before, from the Paleolithic period. Similarly, Gallo-Roman remains testify to the presence of population before the Middle Ages.
