Village du Bugue

The village of Bugue is located in the Vézère valley in Dordogne, in the heart of Périgord Noir and Lascaux, very close to the village of Limeuil classified as the most beautiful village in France. It is arranged like an amphitheater, on the slope of a rich hill.

This city, occupied since very ancient times, has remained faithful to history and traditions and is arranged like an amphitheater. Today Le Bugue retains few vestiges of its past, however, you will see a few old houses randomly along the streets.

The most important event in the history of Bugue would be the decision to set the market day on Tuesday. Decision taken 6 and a half centuries ago! And it's not a legend! It was Philippe le Bel, king of France, who decided on this day. It took effect in 1319, consecrating Le Bugue as a town in its own right, gradually freeing itself from the supervision of Limeuil.
