Nontron is a town with a rich history dating back around 3,000 years, with traces of prehistoric and Gallo-Roman habitation. It is known for its traditional crafts, particularly cutlery, with the famous Nontron knife, one of the oldest folding knives in France. The town stretches over a strategic rocky promontory, once home to fortifications and a historic castle, the latter dating back to the 8th century and rebuilt in the 19th century.

Javerlhac Castle was rebuilt around 1498 by Dauphin Pastoureau, a master blacksmith in Nontron. It is typical of Périgord manor houses, with a rectangular dwelling, a large round tower with machicolations decorated with trefoils, and a polygonal tower housing a spiral staircase. The castle retains defensive features such as gun ports, despite modernization in the early 19th century. It burned down in 1369 during the Hundred Years' War and has undergone several reconstructions. Privately owned, its facades and roofs have been listed as historic monuments since 1974.
