Monpazier is located in the beautiful region between the Dordogne and the Lot and is one of the most beautiful bastide villages in the Périgord. A look at the map of the village does not at all remind you of a medieval village. Where you would expect an organically built settlement with narrow streets and winding alleyways, Monpazier has clean lines and uniformity that are more reminiscent of a Roman army. It is also strange that the village was not founded by the French at all, but by an English king.
