Impossible to miss

This museum is certainly interesting, unfortunately we didn't have enough time

Impressive are the dwellings in the rocks and the houses from the rocks

The forgotten fortress: a millefeuille of stones where dungeons and fortified castles, troglodytes and prehistoric caves overlap in a preserved landscape

Here we have the situation – previously completely unknown to me and therefore surprising – that MADELEINE, a Christian saint (the name is derived from the biblical "Mary Magdalene"), has become the namesake of an era from the proverbial "dim prehistory" (one to one and a half dozen millennia before the beginning of our era). To paraphrase it from Wikipedia, which can explain it better than I can: "The Magdalenian is an archaeological cultural stage in the younger part of the Upper Paleolithic in Central and Western Europe at the end of the last Ice Age. The Magdalenian was named in 1869 by Gabriel de Mortillet after the semi-cave La Madeleine in the Dordogne department. It spanned an approximate period from approximately 18,000 to 12,000 BC."

located in the wild Grande Beune valley, is a historical and archaeological site in Périgord. It offers a journey into the past, with its medieval remains and picturesque landscapes. A must-visit for history and nature lovers.

The Sainte-Marie fountain in Sarlat is a natural resurgence which supplied the entire secular part of the city in the Middle Ages. Located rue des Consuls, a few steps from the famous geese of the sculptor Francois-Xavier Lalanne, this fountain was for a long time the city's drinking water point. However, its proximity to the stables and the streets where residents dumped their waste, urine and excrement led to serious water pollution and typhoid epidemics until the 20th century.

Top tip in this region. Information folder in German, videos and explanations in a film leave no questions unanswered. Otherwise simply impressive cultural monument... Also recommended for kids.
