Welcome to Bergerac
Situated in the heart of the Périgord Dordogne region, on the west coast of France, the ancient city of Bergerac is compact in size and characterised by its elegant Renaissance buildings that sit alongside ones from medieval times. Gourmet restaurants, street entertainment and the fact that almost all of the city can be seen on foot is part of its charm. Bergerac is renowned for its wine, and a short trip to the outskirts of the city reveals a landscape of vineyards that produce some of the world’s finest vintages.
