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.

Bonaguil is home to an ancient 13th-century fortified castle of the same name. The town offers a beautiful setting for a stopover. It also hosts a festival every August, featuring wonderful plays.

Fortified castle from the 13th, 15th, 16th and 18th centuries, classified as a Historic Monument. Bonaguil Castle is located in Lot-et-Garonne, on the border with Lot and a stone's throw from the Dordogne. From the top of its rocky spur, it dominates the valley and the medieval village. It forms an ensemble, unique in Europe, of gigantic proportions and in a remarkable state of conservation.

A remarkable site in the region!

The Château de Bonaguil is an old fortified castle, dating from the 13th century, greatly altered in the 15th century, which stands in the French town of Saint-Front-sur-Lémance in the department of Lot-et-Garonne, in the New Aquitaine region.

Bonaguil Castle was built in the 13th century and rebuilt in the 15th century. It is a formidable fortress that has never been tested by siege or attack. Curiously, it does not defend the city or the river and it is not known exactly why it was located there.

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.
